The only robbery was that Makhachev didn’t get the P4P#1 after that performance. Jon only fought once in the last 3 years against Gane who has 0 wrestling. Makhachev defeated Charles, Volk, Volk all of which were opponents in top 3 P4P at the time… crazy that he’s not #1

[@Sui_Generis0]

It's completely ridiculous, a sham. Nothing he can do to get #1

[@chanceterry1687]

Jon went up in weight and beat the number 1 guy. Regardless of wrestling or not, Gane is a beast. Maybe if Islam actually goes up a weight class and wins the title he’ll get that spot. Regardless, he’s not better than Jon and will never touch his legacy

[@mmacult5336]

cant compare them, Jon Jones is another level to Islam. Islam needs more work

[@kashifakhtar5483]

There should be no excuse of "12 day volk". He underestimated Mackachev and obviously had in his mind that the matchup would be similar to the first where there were a lot of exchanges. Mackachev showed the most improvement from the first fight and executed in his second fight.

[@extracrispy9229]

Not taking anything away from Mackachev that was an awesome performance and he’s an awesome champion who is continually improving his game but… that was 12 days Volk. Again it’s nothing away from Mackachev he won the first fight after all but let’s not pretend that volkonovski wasn’t fighting on short notice and a weight class up. It’s a testament to his mentality but honestly he shouldn’t have taken that fight. There both great champions and I hope volkonovski can bounce back and that this doesn’t mess with his confidence too much.

[@extracrispy9229]

@@olivier7580 I don’t know he’s a big boy and he doesn’t really diet out of camp could be anywhere from 180 to the high 150s. Regardless Islam definitely has a better frame for lightweight; he was made for 155. It’s also worth mentioning that even if they weighed the exact same on the scale all weight isn’t good weight; you can visibly see the difference physically between volk in the first and second fight come on bro.

[@Hrushov]

At least Islam will get less hate now, ppl made the previous fight seem closer than it was, just like Jon Anik said. Volk still a badass though, i hope he overcomes his mental hurdles he spoke abt

Told you islam's striking is great. He was outstriking volk even in 1st fight.

[@marioiglesias4850]

very underrated striking he has, not to mention he uses everything, kicks, punches, knees, elbows

[@areshensem]

One of the big reason his striking is so efficient is because of the threat of his takedown.

[@donix5604]

@@areshensembut its not even the threat of takedown like in his last two fights his striking was really crisp and his counter punching game was also phenomenal which the threat of takedown has nothing to do with it and he was also using high level techniques like the looping left cross which almost clipped volk, i think its time for ppl to start calling islam a mixed martial artist like he was saying for the past year instead of just wet blank wrestler even tho he finished all his last 7 opponents

[@areshensem]

@@donix5604 its diff from his opponent pov. when you encounter a good wrestler, your guarding hand will always lower, but against islam, you have to consider all variety of threats. You can see how volk reacts on every fake attempt and the build up from body kicks, takedowns and finally finish with headlkick

[@SandunLabs]

Im so happy with Makhachev.

[@Ar1AnX1x]

glad Robbo talked about Usman slamming Khamzat while he was about to get the choke for some reason that was mindblowing to me, specially how Khamzat still had control even after that type of chaos

[@ataman1453]

Hey Rob, to say Volk slowed down after the first clinch exchange 2:30 mins into the fight is crazy talk, and it doesn't do justice to the championship level Volk possesses. And it takes all away from Islam. And let's not forget that Volk wanted this fight and he came very confident into the fight. Volk's reaction, after stuffing Islams take down attempt, was pure confidence. He was thinking: Islam can't take me down and I am the better striker and I will knock him out. And I remember you calling the knock out as well. But now you say the coin flip didn't faver Volk so he lost.

[@Cultofderek]

It’s the exact same thing I saw…his entire demeanor changed after the first clinch exchange…to say you didn’t see it is crazy talk

[@seizonsha]

What is confidence? Can you not train for a marathon and win? Yes fighting is different but at the highest level you are asking for trouble. Volk said if anyone can do it he can. Those words alone shows it's a huge task!

[@peopleschoice1457]

​​​@@Cultofderekwhat the f are you saying ? You mean volk just gassed out in 30 seconds? Short notice or not your cardio can't be tested in 2 mins especially when you are famous for your cardio, if it had gone for 3 rounds and than volk had gone slowed than you could've said so but in when you get finished in 2 mins you just got dominated period

[@Cultofderek]

@@peopleschoice1457 well clearly rob agreed that he looked like he waivered so you can keep arguing but even very experienced fighters saw what I saw😂 go cope

[@good2go619]

@@Cultofderek Maybe his demeanor changed because Islam felt different in the clinch this time compared to the first fight. Maybe a rehydrated Islam is stronger. Maybe a Islam that weighs 8 pounds more in this fight than 1st makes a difference. Coach Javier said Islam told him his weight before the fight.

[@tackmerci9313]

It's unfair to Usman to criticize Khamzat's performance. After all, he was up against Usman, a UFC legend. Khamzat managed to control the fight with Usman in merely two rounds. Regardless of Usman stepping in on short notice or Khamzat injuring his arm in the initial round, Khamzat's dominance over a UFC legend in that first round is undeniable.

[@vision28390]

They don't see the above points.. you 💯 correct

[@maxwellsdemon10]

Sure, but people acted like Khamzat would walk through anyone and literally the only reason he isn't champ is that he hasn't gotten the fight. Usman is one of the greatest Welterweights ever, but he is no middleweight AND he came into the fight on 12 days notice. I think we can all agree, that Usman would probably have won the fight if it were 5 rounds and if he had the necessary preparation. We just can't keep on pretending like Khamzat is the uncrowned champ. He is a top contender, but not at all on a different level..

[@vision28390]

@@maxwellsdemon10 No body said khamza can walk through every fighter.. We have seen it with Burns anyways.. The reason Usman accepted that fight on hope he will win in that weight division after his friend Izzy lost the title.. He fought Khamza under the condition of fighting Stickland for the title shot.. So it was worth it for him.. And all was set up while ago.. So he was well prepared

[@maxwellsdemon10]

@@vision28390 we seem to hear different things, because I heard a lot of people calling him the best middleweight in the world right now. Sure, Usman thought he could win and he damn near did. That fight however wasn't planned a long time ago, it was on short notice. You can tell me Usman wanted to go up for a long time, but he didn't have a training camp and that is a huge difference. Nothing changes the fact that Khamzat doesn't deserve the title shot...

Curious Rob. How does a full camp save you from a round 1 KO?

[@Orion-ns8hj]

Volk said in recent video that he knew islam was planning to set up that head kick thats why he was planning to pressure him with High volume like he was saying in post fight interviews but due to lack of training camp he was struggling to pull the trigger & ended up giving islam all the time that he needed for head kick

[@cookiesncream359]

It was ROUND ONE.... There wasn't a lack of anything. He was pacing himself and got caught, end off!! STOP making lame excuses @@Orion-ns8hj

[@FoggyTheHippo]

Yes, conditioning, more training for specific things, better reaction times, longer time to build up to lightweight, more time to cut weight, and a full camp without coming off having a kid and surgery would let him train far better. Islam won that’s fair, but it was a win with a lot of asterisks, I don’t know why y’all Islam fans can’t see that. It was a good and dominant win for sure, and maybe that would have happened to full camp Volk as well, but we will never know.

[@virtualbeast3936]

So we running with the excuse that volk had no conditioning even in the 1st round ? Then wtf was he doing there in the first place. If he really wants to use that excuse then that opens up the argument that volk is a delusional dumbass

[@rikki6]

If Volk was Muslim and Islam wasn't it would be different. All the nut riders would be on a different band wagon.

[@ShetharTraining]

Honestly super cool to see how much Jonny's eye for techniques and understanding of the fight game has improved so much already from the early episodes, dudes a damn fast learner!

[@MMArcadePodcast]

I appreciate you mate, thanks so much 🙏🏼

[@Edward-ki9vg]

I don't agree with Rob's analysis. The issue wasn't Volk's cardio. Coming off the couch or not, you can't tell me that his output wasn't high because he gassed halfway through Rd 1. If it was Rd 3, 4 or 5 then yeah, not having a full camp would be a valid excuse. But getting knocked out in Rd 1 leaves little room for any excuse. You can prepare all you want and still get caught with that. And it's not like Volk never fought Islam before. For Volk's sake I hope he takes a little time off before jumping back in

[@atifmir7409]

It's poor from Rob, he's just making excuses for Volk but they make no sense. Volk looked good while it lasted, but he got KO'ed and closes the argument.

[@dammaguy1286]

It is all because of not preparing for the fight, you could tell volk wasn't going for it, he was hesitant and thats not his style, he was hesitant because he didn't prepare for this fight and wasn't feeling it in the octagon, full camp volk is a different guy than what we saw at ufc 294. Everyone who knows volk and is not a hater could see volk wasn't volk in there.

[@good2go619]

@@dammaguy1286 So, I guess Islam had nothing to do with why Volk was hesitant? Plus it was the beginning of the 1st round, its usually slow as fighters feel each other out and make reads. Plus Islam had Volk on the backfoot and wasn't reacting to Volk's feints. Not only did Islam condition Volk by kicking to his body, he also set up the final head kick by feinting at Volk 3 times that backed Volk up to the cage. Full camp Volk blocks the head kick the same way. It's a flaw in his technique to block that kick that he's always used.

[@dammaguy1286]

@@good2go619 let me say this, full camp volk is a problem for Islam and the volk we saw at 294 was not the usual volk, you could see it he was hesitant and yes it was because of Islam, volk realised that he shouldn't have taken the short notice fight because he just wasn't ready, his timing and everything was off, he is usually a volume fighter and in this fight he was not, in the first Islam fight he hit Islam at the beginning of the fight and wobbled him and thats the volk we know, taking the fight on short notice was a mistake.

[@alcottdevalte7440]

I like both Islam and Alex but Alex' team and the fans failed him big time. Islam should have gotten the flowers of arguably winning a 4-1 decision the first time, and Alex' team should have taken it more seriously instead of thinking they would just run through him. Khamzat always look like a champ during the first round but nobody speaking about Andreas Michael from Allstar gym in Sweden no longer being his head coach, which is a bad thing for him and his ability to evolve more instead of being around yes men..

[@adesanyasnipple5338]

What happened with Khamzat leaving Sweden bro? There’s been a lot of racist stuff there recently might have something to do with it

I think that Andreas is no longer his head coach because he gave him congrats and wished him best luck on social media, which is a shame. Khamzat has a new team besides his old jiu jitsu coach Alan. His connections to Kadyrov has made him stay away from Sweden since he would get questioned over there and most likely watched by the police and etc...

[@jackmanb9974]

Camps impact more than just conditioning my boy. The ability for Volk to prepare for the striking of Islam could have been very different. With a full camp it could have been a very different outcome. Not to mention the point isn't so much if he had a full camp leading up to THIS fight, but the fact that he would have had a full camp leading up to a different PPV. It's all hypothetical, but it sounds like Islam meat riding to say that the 12 days didn't have an impact

[@jcd8279]

If you cant bring up a 12 day preparation as an excuse, why dont all fighters just fight off two weeks prep then? Oh maybe because preparing for a fight takes several months or hard training. Islam was always winning this fight, but coming into a fight off 12 days notice is 100% a disadvantage.

[@Sui_Generis0]

It's just a fact, it's a reason not an excuse

[@Edward-ki9vg]

@@jackmanb9974 one could say the same about "Alex meat riders". Let's hold off with the personal attacks for a minute and look at the situation. Volk fought Islam in February this year where he had a full camp to prepare and all that. He then stayed active by defending against Yair while constantly talking about wanting to get the rematch. So it is not like he fought someone totally new. Meanwhile Islam had a full camp but he prepared for a totally different fighter. The only valid excuse would be the cardio if it went beyond 3 Rds but getting finished in Rd 1 happens all the time even with a full camp. Sometimes it works out like with Bisping vs Rockhold, sometimes it doesn't. It's funny how Alex isn't the one making excuses. He knew about all this when he accepted the fight, it's his fans who can't admit defeat.

A full camp or 12 day camp doesn't change the fact he got caught. Specially early in the first round. If it was a late finish 4th/5th, then you could argue camp was a problem. Islam read him early n conditioned him for the head kick; plus HE took the fight, he DIDN'T have to. So no excuses at all. A loss on a full camp & a loss on 11/12 days.

Rob, what’s your process when the UFC offer you a fight? Do you consult with your coaches or even your wife or dad first? Or do you just decide yourself?

[@mantismd573]

This magneto argument is killing me 😂😂😂 "magneto is powerful enough to stop a nuke" "from 2 kilometers away?" "For sure"

[@NoOne-mx4nx]

Chad Rob right there 59:35

QUESTION Which fighting game street fighter, tekken etc would you like to see get an open world MMO

[@dynastygods9105]

Johnny and Rob, do you guys plan to play UFC 5 for a few minutes the way we saw with street fighter 6?

Tuesday may be best so you don't have to compete with like MMA hour etc. 6:30 jackslack was saying something about how that move is dangerous for the person being held onto, can easily land badly on your neck

[@bryanmorgan758]

Lol no way I've been watching this pod for a year and just noticed it's lonevaultwanderer 😂 used to watch you on Mattys pod before the face reveal!

[@jpr96]

Rob and Jonny, what is your favorite movie? Anime or not Keep up the awesome show!!

[@webbyH]

i started watching rise of the shield hero after your podcast really good thx for the share

[@MalayNomad90]

12 day Volk or 1 year training camp Volk, nobody will survive getting tagged by a kick on the head. Give Islam Makahchev his flowers. Be like Volk, graceful in victory and defeat. That is a sign of a great champ.

[@lomafeurma9744]

Love this podcast❤

[@seibert81]

We need a Whittaker vs Usman fight! Put it as the Co-Main event under Strickland vs Chimaev.

[@treverpitts]

Big John McCarthy made the most sense out of anybody he said when that illegal knee hit Johnnie walker. Johnny pointed to the resident said hey that's an illegal knee that tells you he knew he wasn't out

[@digzydoogan4932]

Get one booked in Rob. I want to see the D.D rematch..

[@rams812]

Why would you fast travel in Spider-Man 2 when the web wings are so fun! Great game though Anyway, new viewer, big fan of The Reaper, Bobby Knuckles. So I'll gladly like & subscribe. Fun podcast

[@daddyphatsax304]

Back up fighters are for if someone gets hurt last minute...or doctors stop them from cutting weight. For last minute situations as in a day or two out I do believe.

[@williamblair-]

Rob once again book recommendation J.R Mathews Jake’s Magical Market. MC’s world gets melded with a magic world. Power system is mainly deck building. Power cards

[@paulc9915]

Rob you have a very unique option to turn yourself into a mythical fighter c'mon. Like Baldanovski or Blond Brunson, Oxygenated DDP. I would fancy a small design makeover. Maybe let the goatee grow a bit more. Leave the middle hair grow. Turn yourself into a Ragnar Lothbrok and become a UFC Mythical Champion! It's perfect

[@emilio9578]

Rob self-censoring at 16:36 then drops the f bomb straight after hahaahha

[@jshunskey8909]

Let's go boys✌️❤✌️

[@trevorpavenski9652]

Oi Rob, you were eyeing that Jon Jones fight a few years back at light heavyweight, do you still have any desire to move up to 205? I know there's some new blood at middleweight now and you're still one of the best in the division, but I think light heavyweight presents some great opportunities for you.

[@benhallo1553]

Sick podcast

[@UberWolf712]

You should randomly use robs stuck face from last ep as the thumbnail lol

[@KahramanEafghanistan]

Question for rob and Johnny: have you guys played chronotrigger? And if so what are your thoughts on it ?

[@Round149]

The “12-day Volk” comment is hilarious 😅😅😅

[@sharpshooter1400]

Whittaker v Usman is a dream fight. See who has the best jab in the ufc once and for all.
