1.Should be noted that Volk, despite giving up 4 inches in height, actually has a one in reach advantage.
2.Also, Elkins gets hit cleanly every fight, wouldn't be surprised in the least if Volk drops him at least once.
3.I wish Volk had a smaller step up in competetion against a decent wrestler so we would have a better gauge on this fight.
4.Volk has absolutely dominated every round he has had in the UFC thus far bar when he slowed vs Hirota (apparently was sick and on antibiotics, which I believe since he has shown no signs of slowing at all in other fights).
5.Elkins has been on a very nice run, but heart and grit will only take him so far, Volk won't gas out like Bektic did, doesn't have a nonexsistent ground game like Johnson, nor questionable fight IQ like Berm/Castro.
6.Seems an uphill matchup and a way to keep Elkins away from title contention to me lol.
