Khabib was a different beast. Islam is better proportioned. Islam has a more beautiful physique. Khabib is not as beautiful. Khabib cannot run as well He is build a bit like a monkey (I am not saying this to disrespect). But Khabib is stronger. Khabib is more resilient physically and especially mentally. Look into Khabib’s eyes. You see a fire. Islam has a nice soft look in his eyes. Khabib (and his father) are more scary. They have more confidence and authority. These are important qualities. On top of it, Khabib has much better defense. We never figured out if Khabib has a strong chin because no one was able to hit him. We never saw Khabib with black eyes like this. Having said all of this Islam is a great fighter. He is number one P4P King right now. Congratulations.

@Muneeb Hasnain Defend takedown should absolutely score and it's absurd to think otherwise. The wrestler scores for getting a takedown because they are controlling where fight takes place. If someone prevents a wrestler from getting a takedown they are controlling that fight stays on the feet. A defended takedown is exactly the same to the guy who wants it standing as a takedown is to the guy who wants it on the ground. Everytime Volk stuffed a takedown, it's him controlling where the fight takes place while Islam is trying to get it down. They should score just as much as any takedown.

Looked like a Welterweight vs a Featherweight out there tonight, CRAZY what Volk did with like at least a 10 pound weight difference, 3 coin toss rounds and Volk in round 5 is destroying Makhachev and making him panic and cling on for dear life as Volk smashes his face into the canvas. Makhachev did a good job getting the back and holding it though. Striking looked a little improved as well.

Can't be the pound for pound without ever moving up in weight ... In my opinion Volks is still P4P no 1 and proved that today...
@youssefkhaled9666 Рік тому
I, a total Islam fanatic, agree with this. But let me ask you something. If Islam was disadvantaged by the weight cut - unable to recover to his full fighting weight due to much less time to do so (whereas Volks easily got back to his optimal weight) - does it not give Islam's win a little more value and spark? (He was 2kg under his normal fighting weight so we didn't see the full-strength Islam) For this reason I would say that it was as pound for pound as you could ever get, despite your comment being very true in general. If he was given the normal 36 hours to recover I certainly would NOT give Islam p4p#1, but in light of these circumstances idk mate it's bloody impressive to be fighting that monster without being fully hydrated.
@cjobi6622 Рік тому
@@youssefkhaled9666 at no point am I saying that Islam was not at a disadvantage. What I'm saying is that in my opinion P4P no1 is usually a double weight champion. Islam has cleaned out his division which was far too easy for him and therefore it's difficult to know who good he actually is. If a featherweight can cause him this much problems then I think he needs to test himself at welterweight.....
@AK-ni4sq Рік тому

Here's how Islam edged out: Volk underestimated Islam's striking, who was not only able to avoid getting hit, but also LANDED more strikes. Islam underestimated Volk's grappling on the other hand and Volk was able to defend MORE but wasn't able to counter attack in terms of grappling, except for the 5th round ground and pound. Both fighters underestimated each other's traditional weaknesses but Islam edged out by "over-delivering" in his expected weakness
