Yeah, I just genuinely think Volk won't be panicking too much over the takedown as he is 100% sure he's getting taken down, now what happens there will obviously decide the fight, if Volk can get up or scramble great, if not he's ****** no doubt about it

I agree with you, Lisac. I think it's not gonna be a walk in the park for Islam, but he's winning this one. 

Volk will probably make it competitive until the end of round 2. After that, I see Makachev imposing his will, taking Volk to the ground and submitting him in the 3rd or 4th. 

I respect Volk too much for taking this challenge, but Makachev is so cautious on the feet and has such an advantage on the ground that it's gonna be too much for The Great.

If he does submit him (or KO him) I think its going to be early personally, and the more the fight drags out the bigger chance Volk has. Because realistically, if Islam takes him down and is absolutely dominant, it won't take him long to submit Volk, but if he's having trouble or Volk manages to scramble, get up, and use his speed and footwork he just might pull away for a nod. 

I'd give him like a 25% chance to win based on that

1. Wouldnt be surprised if Prado knocks out Mullarkey because he definitely has power and Mullarkey is a slow starter. If Mullarkey survives the first round he will cruise.

2. Don Shainis is the literal definition of a perfect UFC can.

No such thing as a lock. Loopy was a lock against Hill. Kayla Harrison was a lock at 1.17 odds against pacheco. Bruno Silva against GM3 was a lock. So may others were locks but hey look at them now
