Say what you want about volkov but he hits like a train. That mouse is leaking bad and he barley touched Werdum.

Feel like Volkov is gonna pull it off. Werdum can't be able to see out of that eye and is out of steam.

Haha, well done volkov.

I think this is the fight that showed Werdum is past it. Nobody beats father time. Werdum of three years ago would have easily subbed Volkov within one. He's slowed too much and can't hang in there for five against the younger cats anymore.

I'd like to see Volkov vs Manuwa.

Still trying to figure out how the judges scored the win for duquesnoy?

It's days like today I hate UFC.  I'm going to go pout in my man cave until I can watch a good card and think about all the ways I'd like to hurt the morons who score this sport.

@Zuli yeah mate, that was a shocker. Even if you ignored the TD's ware hit he still landed more shots, and more meaningful shots, in 2 and 3. Pretty textbook 29-28  for ware from where I stand really.

****** Judging continues to be progressively ****tier. We need start tabulating which judges awarded what scores. Whoever scored that fight 30-27 is in the wrong line of work.

He will probably get the next title shoot right away because theres no one else to fight the champ if he beat Cormier. If Khabib beat Tony theres 2 big fight to make in Russia!

I like Volkov, but I really don't like his chances against Miocic. I think Stipe takes him down in the opening moments and the next time he gets up he will be helped to his feet by the ref.

Ngannou vs Volkov would be a barnburner.

Thas probably wath would happen in a Miocic-Volkov fight, but if Miocic beat Cormier who is on the line for a shoot?
