Alex’s laser sharp focused confidence and Islam’s laid back comedic confidence is such an interesting juxtaposition this is such an amazing clash in so many ways
These two are a great example that we don’t need trash talk involving fighters families etc. The respect and smiles they have for each other is so positive to see! Love these guys!
Islam Makhacev's extraordinary calmness, conviction and confidence mixed with sarcastic humour is out of this world. Alexander Volkanovski is saying sky is not even my limit, I am extra terrestrial. Just can't wait to see this two awesome guys slug it out
He promote McGregor team vs Chandler team more than Makhachev vs Volkanovski. Everybody already know Dana will always favor his son Conor McGregor over everybody else in the UFC.
Yes. And you know, one of the greatest things about the UFC, and why it's better than any other sport, is that it helps build friendships with all the other countries. I love learning about the Dagastani culture, and seeing how tough they are. The UFC is really helping to improve relations between all the major countries. How cool is it to have Islam fighting, or possibly the greatest female fighter in history, Weili Zhang, both are in the UFC.

This is what it looks like when you have 2 individuals who are both fearless and supremely confident in their abilities. Doesn't get much better than this.
Regardless love or hate Volk. There was once a time this man had no respect, now you have to pay homage to this man. Separates the weak from the strong 💪🏻
People still find a way to show him no respect......even now!!! You would like to think him getting the job done on Sunday morning morning would put a stop to that but after watching Volk's career long enough, it still probably wont!!
I don't think anyone can hate or even dislike Volk. He's the rightful P4P King and one of the sharpest and nicest guys in the sport. This is coming from a big time Islam fan!
@@sixwaveholddown they are lol they are promoting it just as much as a Conor fight or an event with 3 title fights. People heard Islam complain (after not doing a single interview himself) and now people are just repeating that randomly with no actual context.
islam has a very unique character i love to see it. he’s not angry or speaking particularly passionately- he’s extremely confidently and calmly just making fun of volk 😂
I honestly love the fact that this more of a legacy fight than a grudge match. Both guys are hyper respectable and just straight up savages, they both know it too! Such a great fight as a whole for the sport.
Right, but I feel like Islam went overboard with those jokes. I understand it can be brought 1-2 times, but bringing it up again and again is annoying.
@@Alex-kt1qk my point is Volk has to constantly remind everyone and himself that he’s fought bigger than Islam his whole life etc etc etc It’s a mind thing and it’s a small sign of weakness. Almost like the saying fake it till you make it. Just look at the face off and you’ll see the size difference.

@@anonymoususerN1 lol there is no such thing as the Dagestani language.it's like saying the American language. His native language is Lak because he is an ethnic Lak [one of the indigenous ethnic group of the North Caucasus. not to be confused with the Kurdish Laks which is a completely different people]. Also, I doubt that he knows Arabic even at a conversational level.
@@disgusting_yummyi believe Lak is his native but Russian has to be his first language. I also come from an ethnic with our own language but because it's not our country's official language, I don't speak it well.

I totally agree! I'm a fan of Islam, but now I'm also a fan of Alex. He agreed to this fight without even thinking about the consequences, all for the sake of the fans! I'm looking forward to
One thing I appreciate about this match up is the mentality. We often don’t get high level guys that are willing to do whatever it takes. I’m beyond excited. I don’t think anyone has the mindset volk has in the ufc.
more than convinced volk has the biggest set in the whole ufc, he’s so confident and you can tell he means it, not a bluff, “ actually idk what i’m fully capable of yet, but i wanna find out “ is cold, hope he pulls through
I love both of these guys it’s going to be last man standing , and the most important thing here is that that they both have the greatest respect for each other and they get along well
Islam has like 1 one punch ko win I would be utterly shocked that he kos a striker of volks caliber without being said I think Islam rag dolls him and subs him or tko
I love that RC has an interest in MMA. He was a hard nose football player and i appreciate that he has brought as much attention to MMA as possible, but, boy, it can be real tough listening to his takes sometimes.

Funny man. Volk is great but Islam gonna show him why it's Makhachev Time !!! New P4P King on the 11th, let's gooooo !!!

for me it's not tough to predict who will win the match, Volk almost have no chance to win, believe me, Islam is excellent in all parts of fighting style, stand and ground. This is MMA, not only kick and punch
This conversation between Islam and Alex is so good. They're just confident and no bad trashtalk just confident talk. Just chilling, both waiting for the fight to happen. And DC did a great job being the mediator by asking the right questions.
I’m shocked ufc didn’t promote this everywhere all January leading up to the fight smh either way excited to watch Islam become pound for pound number 1 fighter in the world inshalla
Can't get great promotion going with boring Islam 😂 he has the skills in the octagon, but not on the mic.. you'll see in the press conference why the promotion wasn't over the top.
the confidence in their ability from this 2 champs are oozing. i think Makhachev will shoot 50 times if he needs to just to bring this fight to the ground and with Volkanovski i think you need break an arm or put him to sleep because he won't quit
When this fight first got announced I thought Volk had no chance. The more I've seen and heard from Volk, he's my low key favourite. Makachev is a beast but Volk is the furthest thing from a joke
By the way, this is the trash talking we need. This two guys stare at each other and cant do anything but smile. They respect each other, they would be friend if they worked together. Amazing atmosphere for one of the greatest fights in history
Why so everyone can say how biased he is 🤷🏾♂️ whats the point he did it since before islam had his first fight and look what thats gotten him ! Nothing but hate
Buildups to massive fights always make us feel a certain way. Angry, vengeful, excited, crazy etc. This is the first time that the buildup’s made me feel HAPPY. That’s a beautiful thing right there 😊
Volks is so confident and has a real believe he can beat lslam which is unlike alot of his other opponents. You can see it in his face that he means it, This is going to be a great fight.
First DC interview where he seemed aware that the other person is a great fighter. No bias. Good job Cormier. This is the first time I’ve seen u not be a fanboy. Great job on this one. U gave respect both ways (even if u didn’t believe it)
He’s just playing his cards right, as soon as this fight was announced he said if volk wins it will be the biggest upset of all time, clear bias and disrespect

There's a good reason for that bro and that's because Dana is promoting slap league! Lol
Never!
@@stonecold316339 lol true that
Can't get great promotion going with boring Islam 😂 he has the skills in the octagon, but not on the mic.. you'll see in the press conference why the promotion wasn't over the top.
@@rollin60z what is this? Ultimate Debate Championship?
Islam's face when DC corrected himself on the order of the fighter announcement had me rolling hahahah. Cant wait for Volk to win :)
the confidence in their ability from this 2 champs are oozing. i think Makhachev will shoot 50 times if he needs to just to bring this fight to the ground and with Volkanovski i think you need break an arm or put him to sleep because he won't quit
Nope it’s gonna be the first or 2nd shoot
When this fight first got announced I thought Volk had no chance. The more I've seen and heard from Volk, he's my low key favourite. Makachev is a beast but Volk is the furthest thing from a joke
By the way, this is the trash talking we need. This two guys stare at each other and cant do anything but smile. They respect each other, they would be friend if they worked together. Amazing atmosphere for one of the greatest fights in history
Imagine you get a chance to join the UFC and get coached by a fighter, and both guys have lost 3 of their last 4 fights
Why's this barely airing right now
And still the first thing you hear on this video is McGregor vs Chandler 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@tvojemanka right🤣
They were probably waiting for The Ultimate Fighter announcement so they could sneak it into this episode in the beginning.
this is a special fight, specifically for Volk. He has a chance to be so great with this fight
The one thing yall forget is Khabib n Islam here building name for their brand EFC
I can just imagine Islam taking Alex down, but can't hold him, and it begins to be harder and harder to take Alex down after that
Pure class, can't wait for this fight fellas.
LOVE AND RESPECT FOR BOTH OF THEM. LOTS OF RESPECT FOR THE GREAT DC AS WELL.
I vow to never use the products of the ads that aggressively populate this and other videos
Islam is so relaxed and confident in himself . it's ridiculous .
48:05 i can see he’s been training hard he’s got a couple of black eyes right now 😂 gotta love volk
Come on DC, promote your boy Makhachev more!
Why so everyone can say how biased he is 🤷🏾♂️ whats the point he did it since before islam had his first fight and look what thats gotten him ! Nothing but hate
And people start call him bias
Volk won the mind game. You can see the moment when Islam doubted his self confidence. 56:15
Schizo
Here comes the psychologist
Buildups to massive fights always make us feel a certain way.
Angry, vengeful, excited, crazy etc.
This is the first time that the buildup’s made me feel HAPPY.
That’s a beautiful thing right there 😊
This fight is not for the casual fans. This is a present for the true fans of MMA.
Volk vs Islam Makhachev is going to be awsome! I can't wait to see it 😭
Islam won
Volks is so confident and has a real believe he can beat lslam which is unlike alot of his other opponents. You can see it in his face that he means it, This is going to be a great fight.
"Brotha Australia don't have wrestling, that's why I don't care" 🤣 bruh u gotta love Islam
First DC interview where he seemed aware that the other person is a great fighter. No bias. Good job Cormier. This is the first time I’ve seen u not be a fanboy. Great job on this one. U gave respect both ways (even if u didn’t believe it)
He’s just playing his cards right, as soon as this fight was announced he said if volk wins it will be the biggest upset of all time, clear bias and disrespect
I love the respect they have for each other
If Volk wins and in a good fashion with no controversies… greatest fighter ever ever
