I guess there are going to be no more questions about judging and who really won first fight between Volk and Makhachev. I would say that Makhachev has beateb Volk on his field. There were only 1 take down attempt. Almost no wrestling in this fight. Islam connected that high kick on first minute and that was already a *ding* for Volk. Second high kick ended everything.
The outcome of the second fight doesn't decide the reality that we see in first fight. But it's true that in this fight, Makhachev definitely hammered Volkanovski but we have to admit that his finishing kicks were illegal and Makhachev should probably be disqualified for that. That illegal shots ruined Prichard Colon's life.
By the way, it was a huge mistake that he took this fight so quickly without preparing but this is the price of his mistake, now he has to wait years to fight Makhachev again.
A similar story with Usman and Khamzat. I think the fighters we’ve grown to love over the years have just gotten too old and now there is a new generation of fighters ready to own all the belts.
Jon Jones is probably the only exception. This man will murder anyone at any time at any age. We will see a good fight in November 11, 2023.
