So so Hellcat you know the craziest Thing about this is we can't be Surprised because we're talking about The number one fight in the world right And I think I think the fact that the The general idea out there in the world Is that man it would be very surprising If he got this done speaks to who Islam Marketev is right that's only it's only When you have someone that special that You find it surprising when someone that Is the greatest in the world wins or Does something that ex you know exceed Them it's uh it shouldn't be surprising But it would be only because of that Alexander volcanovsky's phenomenal every Time he fights we all are always kind of Amazed that his ability to go 25 minutes Never seemed to fatigue he fights at a Pace that is so high and it doesn't even Seem like he's starting to get tired He's he's so well-rounded he can wrestle He can grapple he can strike and then What we saw in that fight against uh Brian Ortega he was in two really deep Submissions and somehow didn't tap so You saw the heart of Alexander Volcanovic on full display too this guy Is a smartness didn't come so we Shouldn't be surprised the only reason We would be is because of how special Islam Hachi is you got a guy in Islam Mahajev who has his His path to Victory very linear he knows
Exactly what he wants to do volkanovsky Is extremely well-rounded I think Volkanovsky is going to be able to Thwart the wrestling and grappling Attack of Islam just enough to eke out a Decision Hello everyone it's fight week and I've Partnered with dual mates So my picks for this weekend are Volcanovski crude and madalena this is This is one of those fights I feel like The way Volks said it's like I'm from Pound number one because number two you Don't get this in any other combat sport Rarely where you have like the best Actually fight the best you used to get An unboxing but I love the fact one Thing I really love about the UFC is the Best fight the best but um yeah and I Like the fact that bulk is just standing In his arm now in his own light and yeah Walking the Cajun Abu Dhabi after this Guy just beat homeboy Olivera yeah and Then both the stood there ten toes down Just ready to roll yeah it comes with The right energy and he's confident Smiling but just confident Even he said the way they were looking At him like where's the small boy yeah I'm like y'all don't know man like you Don't know yeah he used to be [ __ ] How many KDs I think over 100. yeah Walking around with that kind of way you Have a different muscle because I can't
Hold both now I'm not like a great great Wrestler yeah right even for my size I Know how to keep people down but yeah Exactly yeah he finds a way up he always Finds a way up and the fight starts Standing I feel that's where the fight's Gonna be won I mean people still try to I don't understand but after this you What the [ __ ] are they gonna say yeah Yeah and still count for pounds and Still Yeah I give them 100 chance I think he's The pound for pound best right now You know and um I think you I think You'll prove that In this in this upcoming fight you know Um Islam is a legit Champion he's like a Legit threat and he's one of the best in The world and I feel Alexander Volkanovski is just on another level how Do you think volcanovsky gets it done I Think he tags him up and lights him up Uh either beats him up tagging him on The ground uh tagging him throughout the Fight or he hits him with something Solid and then ends up getting the Finish Islam is big I mean he's I don't Know what he's cutting but he's got the Perfect physique for that weight class Yeah like he's uh he's very very lean You know he makes the weight and he he's Obviously way bigger when he when he's Competing he doesn't look anything like A 55 pound guy yeah yeah he's pretty
Small Yeah in comparison when you look at the Two of them together yeah but it the Thing is the grappling like you remember You know uh if you if you look at Volkanowski he had a He's got real good takedown defense and He can take guys down took Max Holloway Down a bunch But he's not the biggest guy even at 45 Right and when you're going up to face a Big guy at 55 but also As Islam seeing anybody that can move as Fast as vulcanovsky yeah what if he Starts catching him what if he catches Him a few times on the feet and if he Can avoid a takedown I mean you're Dealing with a significantly quicker guy Probably yeah he's probably never fought Anybody that quick the Run Ortega had Volk locked up in a guillotine mounted That was insane Islam yeah yeah I forget About that now imagine Islam in that Same position yeah getting up you might Not get out of the road yeah yeah I Think Islam has a Next Level Otherworldly squeeze it just seems like He gets a hold of these guys and they Just can't do jack [ __ ] I I don't think there's a fight in the World I can ever truthfully say that Vulcanovsky's an underdog I think he's I Think volcanovski is just and this is Absolutely unbiased trust me I'm like
He is just a Powerhouse He he has a very very well-rounded skill Set and he has the experience and Ability to strike when he needs to Strike take down when he needs to take Down and mix it up that that is that is Such a dominant Um way to fight mate it is such a it's Such an unsure fight like Because like I said but You have to have Belief in Islam's wrestling the same way Khabib was like you just But then But then you want like there's always That but what if he can't take him down You know what I mean Because I think if you can't take it Down he's kind of screwed I think dogs Way better on the feet that's that's What I that's what exactly what I think I think if Islam can't get him down Just just pieces him up over five rounds Because box striking is good he hits Hard he can take a shot he's got cardio For days like he's working I think Um Mark Jeff is gonna get him down make no Mistake my job's been wrestling since Using diapers against goats and Werewolves and whatever they're doing Dagstan he didn't get him down I don't Think he's gonna be able to control him Down there I do think we're going off
Soon get back to his feet It's gonna be you know in Australia so They're gonna be a little biased towards Volkanovsky I do think he beats him Um you know by one round I think he's Gonna be a close fight I think there's Gonna be some controversy I think Mark Chev is going to take him down a lot of People well way more uh and look more Into the takedowns opposed to what vocal Now she's doing on the feet so there's Gonna be rounds room like well uh Mark Jeff did get him down but volkanovsky's Landed more shots on the feet I think Mark Jeff's uh gonna struggle with the Tenacity with the speed the quickness The the sheer lack of height with uh Volkanovsky and I think volkanasi is Gonna be able to get back to his feet Frustrate marketev and win the rounds Just by staying outside I think you will See kicks I think his speed his Quickness his overall up and down game Is going to be the the deciding factor There I I I think vocalypse he beats on Their decision Thank you guys for watching if you liked The video please leave a like And Subscribe to our channel to keep up with The latest MMA News [Music]
