    2-1 Makhachev.

    Volk had a good round. Good takedown defense and good striking. Good leg kicks and a knockdown near the end of he round.

    3-1 Makhachev.

    Good submission defense from Volk. He is just so physically strong. Makhachev controlled the round and both guys still look fresh.

    2 - 2 for me, Volk is actually doing the work with Makhachev on his back but its the BS scoring of UFC that the rnd would go to Islam

    3-2 Islam closer to 4-1 Islam than Volk win IMO

    but you never know

    Glad I was wrong about Islam dog walking him.

    What a fight.

    I have Makhachev 3-2, but Volk finished the fight strong. Volk is a one of a kind. A great fighter with a great all-around game. His cardio is insane.

    rnd 4 is the crucial rnd for me. Makhachev got the back but other than leg lock around the waist it was Volk with the offense with Makhachev wrapped around him

    48 -47 X 2
    49 - 46

    Makhachev. The 49 - 46 was BS
