I'd personally rather see the Volk/Max trilogy fight later this year. Volk took little damage against KZ so thinking they could make that fight late summer to early fall at the latest.

That should absolutely be the fight, Max deserves it and Volk needs it if he wants to claim being the best 145 in the world as well as the GOAT 145erI'd personally rather see the Volk/Max trilogy fight later this year.

100% agree. Don't know how anybody saw that different. Max still the champ in my eyes.That should absolutely be the fight, Max deserves it and Volk needs it if he wants to claim being the best 145 in the world as well as the GOAT 145er
I love how Volk is getting universal praise now from everyone and even the fans
But I saw the man lose with my own two eyes. I rewatched the fight several times. He lost. A lot of smart people said the same thing
Yet after the Zombie fight it was "has Volk passed Aldo for GOAT" is Volk now top 2 P4P?
There were serious debates about this by the same smart people who said Max beat Volk
Make it make sense
Volk has unfinished business with Max. If Volk beats him, ok everyone can honestly say 2-1 Volk. He's the GOAT
And then now we're saying we'd be OK with Volk skipping Islam for the 155 title shot?
Hellllllll nahhhhhhhhhhhh
My most hyped fight outside of those is the winner of Oliveria/Justin to fight Islam hopefully by the end of the yearYeah. A friend shared a clip. I could see it was looping and may have hit the back of his head. I also saw that second take down lol.
Great scrap. Truly the best WW fight since Usman/Covington 1. This could be a big year for UFC. I hope they can make some of those big fights a la Jon/Stipe. Tui/Aspinal. Figgy/Somebody. Aljo/TJ. Aldo/Somebody. Volk/Max 3. Pena/Nunes 2. Yawner McGregor.
I feel that. Yeah MW has been cleaned out for the most part. Credit to Izzy for doing the work, I don't want to characterize it as on the decline, Izzy just showing he's a level aboveIt's crazy. Not geeked for MW right now. It's crazy, MW and LHW used to be two of my favorite divisions. But those divisions have definitely declined a lil.
FW, BW and HW definitely been on the come up. LW and WW been legit.
Yeah that was probably the best time it's ever been in the UFC for MWI felt the division was "better" after Anderson lost the title to Weidman. We had Romero, Hall, Rockhold, Weidman, Bisping, Bobby Knuckles, etc.
I Googled the division back in 2016. Just seemed more lit and more stars. Same with LHW:
Middleweight
Prime Rockhold, Weidman, Romero...I give the edge over Izzy (Today's Hot Take lol).

- 4 Yoel Romero
- 5 Vitor Belfort
