So what I'm wondering is, are they going to do an immediate rematch? Volk would deserve it imo, but Topuria looked really good this fight and finished Volk impressively.

Volk had a great run and a hall of famer. Let's also not just disregard Topiria and blame it on 'old man 35 year old'... topuria is just pretty ******* good.
