After the fight with Islam he became the people’s champ.
Yes
100% a great alround athlete...
never real champ tho😂😂🤝
@@juampablolepe2284
How so?
Definitely more deserved than islam!
He is a champ that went up a weight division and got ripped off!😎
@@juampablolepe2284 we don’t care 😂 he bitched Islam in front of the whole world
The fact that he started MMA at like 22/23 and he became the best fighter in the world at some point is crazy, he is so damn good man I wish I had the work ethic and the discipline he has
“Anyone can do what I’ve done. The sky’s the limit for any of you.”
Rugby is Australias version of USAs wrestling essentially.
Quite good techniques and fitness that transfers over. Not to mention that lack of neck (a lot of rugby players have short necks cause of big traps or learn to tuck there neck in very far to avoid injuries and absorb a tackle) helps counter submission artists.
How do you know you don't? Start, that's how it starts.
I’m 23, coming off an Achilles rupture. I’ll never be anywhere close to them lol, but he’s inspired me to run some BJJ and boxing work once we get this thing back in shape.
not just the best fighter in the world.. Volk is one of the greatest of all time now, no one can deny him that
the way volk used to be as big as he was when he was playing rugby, to not only to lose weight train mma at 24 then to become one of the greatest fighters. it’s astonishing what he’s doing with little time he’s had. he’s my favorite fighter because he embodies a true mixed martial artist. he combines everything together and puts it all in 1. his striking wrestling iq etc. he’s truly one of the greats. i try to mimic my style after him
I swear guys that come down from a big weight are just built different. Like look at ‘Killa Gorrilla’ Cannonier their muscles just seem so much more compact
@@cobefriend7797their more dense
Don't mimic, find your own style. Inspiration is good tho
And if I'm not mistaken the position that he played in Rugby is a position that the bigger, heavier players usually play. Just shows this guy is a natural born winner and has an exceptional work ethic also he isn't a fighter that after becoming a champion becomes a cocky, self absorbed toolbag Now more then ever the UFC/WWE needs more champions like Alexander "The Great" Volkanovsky
I thought he lost the second Max fight, but in that third Max fight he showed the world that nobody in 145 can come close to his skill.
Me too. That third fight made the 2nd irrelevant, lol.
Oh would you stop it? He won the 2nd fight fair and square, its been debunked a million times since, you Max fans are so fkn annoying.
Bullshit that USADA woke Volk on fight night to do a urine test though, someone should have been fired for that.
Imagine before your title fight, you get woke up, made to chug a water until you can piss for them, then take sleeping pills before a fight to try to overcome the situation.
@Monsterbaby's Channel Well, it wasn't irrelevant to Max lol. It woulda been his title back even if he lost it again. He deserved it. That 3rd fight was the ultimate decider that we're in Volk's era now though. Aldo, Max, and then Volk each with their own reign. But Max did earn it back even if it was for that last time.
The only truly honest comment on here, respect!
Seems like the most down to earth fighter in the UFC and is not scared to fight anyone
Kevin Holland and Wonderboy gotta be up there too
The fact one of the greatest featherweights of all time started mma at 23 is insanely inspiring
I know mate I'm 18 and I thought it was too late for me lol
This guy is honestly built different. To go from dominating rugby league (brutal sport) to UFC (even more brutal) and be p4p number 1 is unbelievable. Definitely one of the greats
God loves you
love the guy but he definitely did not dominate rugby league
He is the baddest man on the planet under 175lbs, but he would still walk thru 90% of fighters middleweight and up as well. He's just a bad bad man.
Love and support Volk but I don't think he can stand up against MW guys. 40lbs of weight on scale is a lot let alone the extra 5-10% they may gain. Plus the reach and height differences I doubt he do well against anyone above WW
@@b.28 I don’t think he’d be champ or anything but I’m pretty sure he used to fight at 85 and he does spar with Izzy so he could prob take out some of them
No he wouldn’t 😂😂
You’re on actual crack if you think he would stand a chance against Robert Whittaker, Marvin, Paulo or even Yoel. Definitely not any other ufc ranked middleweight. The second they got ahold of him it would be over. That’s why classes exist. I’m a volk fan saying this
MW is too big, he would get worked by 90% of them tbh
There's several things you can't do to Volk: You can't break him. You can't outlast him. You can't out-gas him.
As well: He's *very* hard to submit (the best couldn't do it). He's *very* hard to KO (only once 10 years ago).
So that leaves a *very* narrow path to victory over Volk!
And the KO was a when he was fighting a welterweight lol
Volk really is build different, the human honey badger
Woseph Warmand
@@kossonar2663 The human honey badger 😅 That's what Volk really is 😎 Can't wait when he dismantles Islam in the rematch
@@dawood2ulol he got slept💤😴💤😴😂😂😂😂
He paving a path of swollen and bloody faces right now, Dude is a monster
It’s refreshing to see a fighter being confident but humble and displaying sportsmanship at every opportunity. If his fighting hadn’t won me over his character would have. You will always have a supporter in me Alex. Stay classy
Volk is the quintessential champ . Hats off to him. Major fan. Such a gentleman and champion
Most people think Volk won
I seriously thought he did cause I thought it was clear that round 1, 2 and 5 was his. I was dumbstruck when the judge raised Islam's hand. No disrespect for Islam but come oooon bruh
@@Abudzin4-1 Islam got slept in a Rematch lol better fighter don't lose 2 times in a Row
He won that islam fight. The fact that he TOOK ISLAM DOWN and was actually on top throwing down bombs at the end of that fight was absolutely astounding. In my opinion he's cemented himself up there with GSP and Jon Jones as one of the all time GOATs.
I'm a huge volk fan but Islam won that fight.
A few more for his legacy and he will be the undisputable GOAT. Will have a better resume than anyone else in MMA
@@JONATHANJOHNSON-tn4rk definitely not lying
The panic on Islam's face in that final round was something else.
Hope Volk gets to challenge for the BMF belt down the line.
@JONATHAN JOHNSON you know that like 90% of all mma analyst gave the fight to islam. dont get me wrong it was close but man get over it. maybe there will be a rematch one day but you can bet that volkanovski wont do it.
Volk is a different breed, outta this world man
Volk and Aldo are neck and neck for me at FW goat, if he defends once more he has it for me. The way people were calling him a BW, and the fact that he was pounding on a “weigh bully” at light weight, tells me he’s the true pfp king, and that he’s likely the pfp greatest ever.
I got volk over aldo tbh in fw goat and mostly cuz of the conor loss i think that fights plays a huge role in it aswell
he won around title defence
Volk would completely steamroll a prime aldo
It's crazy how every title defence Volk has had, (apart from the first one against Max) Volk has convincingly beaten every other contender to his thrown thus far. That in itself lifts the quality of his defences.
When I see Volk in the octagon, I feel like you can see that he loves every minute of it
Wtf???? Only 55.2k subscribers????
Bro, I thought I was watching a channel with a MINIMUM OF 10x THAT!!!!
Bro, your work is incredible! As long you keep making these vids, I’ll be watching them!!!
Just remember I was here before you hit even REMOTELY CLOSE to the # of subs you deserve!!!!
I truly appreciate the support! Thank you 🙏
My exact thoughts
Agree
You need to share his content so more people will sub
How could you dislike this man tuff as nails and just a good humble person 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Volkanovski beat Makhachev's ass that entire fight. He should have been given the belt. The UFC better run that back.
Daylight robbery, like Paddy vs Gordon
I like volk but had him losing by a round.
I too notice how unshakable Volk's mindset was and I thought it would be broken by Dagestanis like how Conor, Dustin, Justin, Olivera etc... have. Boy I was wrong, I should have believe him the moment he escaped Ortega's guillotine. And holy fck that Round 5, he's the one on top of Islam! He does indeed have an tremendous heart, strength and mindset. He has no quit in him and I don't think someone in the 145,155, and 170 have stronger mindset than him.
It's the Aussie never say die attitude and will to win
Blessed would still be the champion at 145 if it wasn't for the Human Honey Badger that is Volko!
Max should try 155 for a bit they’d give him great top fights bc the fans love him but he’s adamant on that 4th Volk fight
@@kingt0295 call me crazy but I'd love to see Max fight Conor in Hawaii, can you imagine the crowd pop for that..!!!!!!!!
human honey badger lmao nice
Volk is one of the greatest fighters of our generation.
Props on the work. Very well done. Good balance of everything - fight clips, quotes, history, and commentary. You gave Volk the respect he deserves. Remarkable and inspiring champion and human.
Yeah legit fantastic video. Fully engaged and entertained from start to finish.. bravo

Any where anytime this champ from the US to BRAZIL has smeshed his opponent’s 💀 humble down to earth strong AF and scared of no man alive 👊 I GIVE YOU ALEXANDER THE GREAT HULKANOVSKI. Awesome video thank you 👍
That was a great watch, thank you for making the video. As a fellow Aussie, we have so much love for Volk
Used to think he was overrated after those first 2 Holloway fights. But he’s the man.
@@isaiahgarcia163 If you were a big max fan and some short dude came along and took his belt by points you'd think he's not all that and got lucky
@@isaiahgarcia163 Yeah but you could see why the perception at the time was what it was
- people liked max
- volk was still a relatively unknown fighter for the majority of viewers
- max went on to say post fight that volk won cause his team was smart and knew how to play the system i.e making the fight sound close
- popular opinion was that volk won on leg kicks alone
- so people hated on volk
Thanks for this video man, great work. Volk has inspired me in mma the way no one else really has since GSP, love this dude.
Everyone thinks im short,and then im punching them in the face,~ "Alexander Volkanovski"
Volk and Max are two champs that can go to a decision almost every fight they have and nobody minds that they didn’t get a finish. Sometimes a 25 minute beat down is more entertaining than a quick KO.
Dude is a great guy as well! Always been a man true champ, a warrior and a role model!
@21:56 watch how damn fast Volk is reacting. the in and out, in and out, dip plants his feet and sends a friggin missile. hes so good.

We don't have long on earth so make the most of it,
We’re all gonna make it brah 👑
Awesome work on this video! Love seeing deep dives on my favorite fighters! Thanks for making it!
Would highly recommend people watch his full UFC career. His development is insane. He fights almost nothing like he did in his debut.
We all know Volk shoulda been Double Champ Judges fumbled it once again 🤷🏽♂️💯
Volk is everything great about a champion. He fights all
The time. He wants the hardest fights. He is fun to watch.
He true goat for me in mma right now
Let’s go!!! So excited to watch
He may be small in size, but he is definitely the badass among all...... big respect to alex..
youv've got great clips here, and even better editing. awesome job yet again
Volk lands several takedowns off Yairs kicks. Ground and pound finish by the goat. Mark my words
you were right!
Has to be one of if not the most likable champions ever , seems kind,humble and genuine!! Hard not to like the guy, thank you Alex.. you are The Great!!!
u deserve so many more subs than you have keep up the amazing work 💯‼️
Thanks brother!
The work you guys had put in edit is outstanding … awesome video guys
People who say he lost in 2nd fight, were listening to the commentators too much. These guys have bias unfortunately
@JONATHAN JOHNSON well of course, but rooting for Max is a complete different story. Or another example how the commentators blow Izzy
this was dope, and motivating thank you.
Izzy is always at Alex's fights. Nice friendship ngl
I was blown away by the quality of the content and the way you put together the video ❤️🫡
The powder puff intro was awesome!!
Just discovered your channel, love your edit and breakdown here man. Very enjoyable watch 💯
Great video! Thanks.
I didn't become a Fan of Alex until he fought Brian Ortega. After he got out of the 2 positions that would have tapped anyone else, I said you can NOT deny how Great this guy is and he has proven it over and over. Respect!!!
I’ve respected him the whole time, but the first time I rooted for him was against Islam. I love Yair’s style, though, so I’ll probably be rooting against Alex again in his next fight. Alex is weird, I usually root for his opponents, but I’m never mad when he wins because he’s such a level headed down to earth guy.
Sweeeet vid. Loved it! Thankyou 🙏❤
Fr man Alex is such an inspiration and I can’t wait for his comeback 🙌😤
CLENCHED TEETH is my favorite MMA youtube ch.
Great video!! You have an ability to tell a story, and make the audience feel something well put together!!
Thank you 🙏
I can't believe i just found your channel. One of the best in CZcams. Great job
Thank you brother 🙏 welcome aboard!
very well produced and easy to watch :) great work! and of course Respect to the great!
It's really interesting how many rugby players practice MMA during the off season. A bunch of the South African rugby players do it too.
The editing on this video is top tier man
That was a great video. Good job man.
LETS GO!!!!!!
You made it ♥️
thanks for the video

Awesome video 🔥
Awesome vid!
Continued success to a great warrior
top videos keep up the good work
Amazing video!
That power puff girls intro was legit lol
Nice research for the video! 👍🏼
Volk is for sure top 5 ever in ufc history
I say he's 26 and 1 but also that loss was at middleweight early in his career
Amazing video
This man carries himself with such dignity , humility and humbleness.
A real sportsman.
Aussie! Aussie! Aussie!
