Volkov is doing exactly what he needs to do. Being patient.

Wow look at Tai throwing leg kicks. He is trying to do the things necessary but Volkov will methodically pick him apart

10-9 Volkov, Tai's best chance was in those first 5 minutes. His confidence has gotta be hurting after that knockdown too.

Volkov needs to keep catching that kick or he won't be able to take many more

 That 1-2 is money for Volkov, Tai keeps putting on the earmuffs and they're slipping right through.
