UFC 284 On ESPN+ PPV [2/11 @ 10 pm ET] “Return To Oz” (Makhachev/Volkanovski, Rodriguez/Emmett)

[Knockout_LR_Freshmart]

Had Islam winning but that was an amazing performance from Volk.

 

[Legal]

Yeah, even if you think Islam won, 49-46 is fukking crazy.

 

[GOAT]

@ the casuals in here. Volk got beat soundly both standing up and on the ground. Yall really let the crowd and the biased commentary fool you

 

[EarlyEarly]

Volk lost but he’s amazing. Great fight. If he was 6 feet tall he would have done it. I’ll take him over anyone else in lightweight.

 

[BigBrown21]

Islam rightfully won 3-2.

 

[Duke Wy Lin]

Stop it

Maybe it's just my disappointed in Islam talking since I expected him to be dominant. Will have to watch again

 

[Deafheaven]

Islam survived more than won if we bein honest

 

[KamikazePilot]

That might be the ugliest win I’ve ever seen in a match this caliber

 

[Rain]

I ain't mad at him but something about him saying he's the best fighter in the world while he can barely breathe got me

 

[True Blue Moon]

…

Nah he was exhausted

 

[aceboon]

Knew it!

I was telling my buddy. It's gonna be 1 and 5 for Volk and 2-4 for Islam. I even said they'd call round 4 a 10-8 and lo and behold one judge did.

Judge just scored it 4 rounds to 1, round 4 wasn't a 10-8 Islam didn't do anything besides control and Volk was tagging him from behind/bottom

 

[Roid Jones]

Lightweight Champ

Pound for pound

Out struck a 'striker'

Traveling champion

Volk and Kambosos losing at home

 

[Dog Based Gremlin]

all the biggest champs lost in a row

Usman
Izzy
Volk

 

[sportscribe]

That's not his toughest fight though.

He's been KTFO before. I like Dariush's offensive wrestling against him.

 

[QBN]

Volk gained in stature even with this loss. He pushed Islam to his limit
