Yes. A heavy hitter that can grapple. He will always force a brawl and Volk might get the short end of the stick.So you picked illia just because you think he is better?

Volk is no spring chicken, if he does an Edgar/RDA run to end his career it would be ok. I don't see him taking a ferguson slide, he seems smart enough to hang up the gloves if he starts getting beat down in every fight.Worst case for Volk is an Edgar/RDA career with a win/lost pattern after sliding down from their peaks. Volk won't be a Tony Ferguson like you're trying to paint. Maybe if he trains in the US full time for a change of scenery, coaches and partners might do him good. Lots of fighters became better after a tramautic loss and Volk looks like he belongs in that category.
They want to drop Australia. Taxes are killing the ufc.February? Seriously!
It honestly seems like Volk is being targeted by the UFC lmao, what did he do to Dana??
Ilia is a fantastic underdog pick
Well Ilia will be the first opponent with an actual win streak going into a title fight against Volk. Both Ortega and Korean Zombie were on 1 fight win streaks. Yair managed to get 2 wins because we have to count the injury win over Ortega. Ilia is undefeated with 6 straight wins in the UFC. Its not Volk's fault, he's not the match maker but he hasn't defended against anyone with any sort of momentum yet.Surprised at the reaction to this fight. Why are so many picking against Volk? I know he is coming off a brutal KO loss but that was against Islam Makhachev. I just cant confidently pick against Volk at FW.

Volk is 35 which is a death sentence in championship fights at lower weight classes. If he wins he will be the only person other than Woodley to win a championship fight at a lower weight class at age 35 or above. No one wins at 170 and down when they get older. And Volk looked terrible in his last fight. Like he didn't even want to be in the octagon.Surprised at the reaction to this fight. Why are so many picking against Volk?

If volk wins is he fw goat? I think he gets it done
You don't think Volk has it anymore because he lost to Islam on 12 days notice coming off the couch after having surgery?I just don't think Volk has it anymore
