People keep saying they are surprised at Islam's striking! He's had great striking his whole career. He is a Taekwondo black belt. People said they were surprise in the Charles Oliveira fight at how good Islam's striking is and at the punch that knock down Charles before the submission, but he's been demonstrating his striking skills in all his fights before that, these people just don't seem to see it. He TKO'd Gleison Tibau nicely. Now after this head kick can we stop saying how surprised we are at Islam's striking skills. He is simply the best fighter in the UFC at the moment!

[@lukajovanovic7310]

I agree his striking is very good now, we can say its one of the most calculated and measured strikers right now, but when he and khabib come to UFC they couldnt strike, then Javier Mendez teach em how to strike throughout the career, Khabib never got to the level Islam did when it comes to striking but he improved too a lot since joining the UFC, both of them did, unfortunately that costed Makhachev 1 MMA defeat, early in his UFC career.

[@BrianForTheWin]

Anyone surprised at his striking hasn’t been listening to Javier Mendez. He’s been saying for years that Islam’s striking is as good as his grappling, which is actually obvious if you pay attention. Charles tried to lure him into the kind of wild melee he thrives on, but Islam was far too disciplined, sat back, and then easily took him apart with like 3 counters.

[@Hamada1887]

After retirement, that's the arguement like the khabib era : 1- defend belt few times. 2- didnt fought prime volk or prime charles ( as khabib didnt fight prime conor or prime poirier gaethje...) 3- didnt fought a gangster like poirier or gaethje(as they said about khabib vs Ferguson) and if islam fought one of this two he could easily lost. 4- he never rematch charles and if was happend charles easily would win. 5 - it's not enough to compete in one division and he need to move to maybe heavyweight division to beat jon jones and prove someting. Etc etc etc So, islam and khabib haters, see u after islam retirement to read such comments ^^

[@edvinparmeza1298]

Volk's fans as always are saying "but he accepted the fight in short time". But, why is this not the case for Kamaru Usman? How can you make this excuse legit for Volk, but not for Usman? They both accepted the fights in short notice, and Kamaru survived 3 rounds, and many say he won the fight against a beast like Khamzat, who has been training full camp for this. (Don't forget the fact that Usman also has damaged knees, so his loss should have been more justified than Volk's) Another point where this excuse cannot be used, is the fact that Volk lost the fight in the 1st round, when he was still 100% charged with energy, no fatigue, no injury, and he got defeated in his own field (striking), so Islam showed that he has improved his standing skills way better than the 1st fight. And in my opinion, he also deserves the no 1 spot in P4P, Jones has fought just once after 3 years of absence and against somebody who was afraid to throw punches at him. Jones was the GOAT for 2010s, but now it's Islam's time.
