He's surpassed him at his point imo, but damn how good of a fight would Prime Aldo vs Volk have been? Let's see Volk get a much deserved rematch against Islam.
Max beats any version of Aldo, and we seen what Volk did to him as well. Volk is levels above, the dude can now grapple and wrestle in a similar style to Khabib which Aldo would have nothing for.
Need Volk to equal Aldo's defenses before I can comfortably put him above I'm not a tool, I know there's a strong argument already, but I like to be sure Islam rematch, Topuria defence, Sterling defence Add that to his Max trilogy and solid wins as a contender (Mendes, Aldo) and I'd slide him under JBJ and GSP and above Mighty Mouse and Izzy (who, as much as I dislike him for being cringe, will probably end his career with a beautiful record/resume) What do Jones, GSP, DJ and Volk all have in common? Well-roundedness. Simple
