      ​@@ZackP2139 I don't know what you mean but Topuria vs Max is a 50/50. People were saying Justin was gonna KO Max but how did that go.
      If you're talking about Volk, He needed to take a year off sparing. He came back 3-4 months. Not even sure how the commission sanctioned it.
      Head kick followed by a lot of punches to the head and face. Referee took his sweet time. He should have stopped it when Volk went down from the Head kick. It was the fence holding him up.

    Ilia stood toe to toe for 5 rounds with Josh Emmett who hits the hardest in your division.. dude was in the pocket, trading shots and being incredibly calculated. You think Max poses a problem? People act like we haven’t seen Ilia go 5 rounds keeping pressure and throwing big shots. As for Max, he’s been outboxed. He was outboxed by you, Conor and Dustin lol I think Ilia is the best boxer in the sport. Smooth, fluid, head movement is flawless and he’s constantly level changing which is good to use for people like Max who only strike. I think Max eye poking Gaethje after a shattered nose (who never chose to adjust and took like 5 spinning back kicks to the nose) and KO’ing him is giving folks a recency bias like no other. We shall see.

Volk himself cracked Max with some crazy shots and he didn't look phased, those same shots knock out most people. Ilia obviously hits hard, but if people like Volk, Dustin, Conor, Aldo couldn't knock him out why would Ilia be able to? Exciting fight though can't wait for it.

    "He supposedly has wrestling..." That's Ilia's base. He's a spanish national now, but he trained wrestling in Georgia since he's a kid. He has VERY high level wrestling and legit BJJ. He only started knocking everyone out recently when he realized his explosiveness transfers perfectly to striking power. He's probably the best active wrestler in his weight class.

      Are you new to this? Max, after Aldo and Gaetjhe, was the classic anti-wrestler. He is THE archetypical anti-wrestler now that Aldo and Volk have both gone down against wrestlers. It used to be its own style, I'm sure Jack Slack or someone has a few videos on it. Truth be told, Ilia is also an "anti-wrestler" style.

    Ilia gives me O'Malley vibes going into his fight with Merab. When you spend the entire fight looking for a ko and you're opponent doesn't present the opportunity due to footwork etc., it turns into falling behind fast

    • @Pokertildawn
      @Pokertildawn 3 місяці тому

      You’re getting Ilia’s approach wrong. He’s not saying he’s going to go for a KO all the fight. He’s saying he’s so superior as a fighter compared to Max that KO is the only possible outcome.

    • @joshpeetrash
      @joshpeetrash 3 місяці тому

      @@Pokertildawn @dickinsonpoker I'd recommend watching Ilia's past fights- most notably, Josh Emmet and Bryce Mitchell. His gameplan [as reflected in his fights even in the Volkanovski fight] is to damage the lead leg in order to slow opponents down and pressure them to the fence where they're more stationary in order to unload on them with power punches. When he misses [i.e, the Mitchell fight] his momentum [because he turns his waist/puts all his weight behind punches] throws him completely off balance- hence, he headhunts or looks for a knockout. Even in the Volk fight, if you look at the stats it'll reflect he was headhunting [majority of attempted strikes was to the head] 🤔🤷‍♂️. I'm simply saying that people are overlooking Max's footwork. To knockout you're opponent you need to land, and when you're opponent is constantly circling out and away/using head movement, you won't land effectively/clean.

    One thing that people tend to forget is that Max fought Dustin. A powerhouse in 55 and definitely hits harder than Ilia and Dustin couldn't knock Max out. An argument can be made that Max fought Dustin at 55 and therefore Max is physically stronger and more resilient, but him already fought someone stronger than Ilia is something that needs to be considered.

    Lets be honest, you are being biased so it goes the way you wish, u know that putting energy out there and confidence to Max can cause a difference, even if very little. The chance of Ilia winning is so high, its not for no reason Max is the underdog. Ilia is spetacular, and you see the mentality, the guy is making a lot of money and instead of getting an expensive car as all fighters do, he create this high tech gym/ reabilitation in his own house. He is so legit, the guy represent all the right athlete values and he will ge it done by knockout, or submission or by points, he win by watever he wants
