    3-2 either way seems fine.
    But after watching it in slow motion with no sound, I had Volk edging it.

    Islam 1, 2(s)
    Volk 3(s), 5
    Round 4 is the dealbreaker. Islam had the dominant position but wasn't advancing it and was taking damage for 3 minutes

    Wouldn't call the fight a robbery but I definitely DO feel slightly robbed of one of the best moments in recent UFC history. Islam should be ashamed of calling himself P4P #1 after the beating he took. If rugby was easy it would be called sambo
