UFN 115 - Struve vs Volkov - Netherlands

[Slohog]

You know its a bum card when you have 3 serbs fighting on the same card

Dude I'd bet three random serbs against any other group of three migrants in a free for all in Rinkeby.

For anyone that can translate

 

[Card]

I feel great, first time in Netherlands, he's a striker, #1 in UK, likes to wrestle too, I'll bring the fight to him, put on a show for the fans, working on everything, make sure my striking is sharp, hopefully he wants to stand and trade with me, get there Tuesday at week of fight, I will finish him, sadly Benson has a fight, so he won't be coming out, alot of big names coming from the MMALab, John Crouch in my corner, In 2018 I will be top 5

 

[Card]

So happy to get KO win over Nico, he came to fight, I got POTM bonus, Till is confident, cocky, undefeated, first time in Netherlands, Muscle Pharm is gone, but team Elevation still exists, same coaches, train at different places, smaller teams now, it's brought us closer, Magny has a fight after me, my teammates are telling me my BJJ is sharp, I want to show that, mix it up, on the feet give the a fight that crowd will remember

A lot of people seem to think Bojan might grind Till out but i don't see it personally. He has hit 3 of 12 td attempts in the UFC, and he failed to secure top control off any of those td's. Till has shown solid tdd and very good hips when he has hit the canvas (i'm disregarding r3 against Dalby as he was fighting with one arm). If this stays on the feet Bojan is getting chewed up. Bojan could easily be 0-5 in the UFC including his TUF fight. Got a gift against Chirico and he was 20 seconds away from losing to Musoke. He's got a grinding awkward style but Till's standup is going to be too crisp and sharp for Bojan. People are also mentioning that Till prefers his left side and how will he deal with a southpaw. Well we can ask those exact questions of Bojan who is a much more limited striker. I've also not been able to find a Bojan fight against a southpaw, and Bojan is pretty favourable to his left side as well. In a striking battle I will take the guy who's been striking since he was 12 over the guy who pre UFC tended to win fights by grinding.

I can't find it listed anywhere either but it still must be 20 hours or so away though.

man the struve/vokov size difference wasn't much at all, especially when you consider struve can't manage distance against guys who are 5'11.

Agreed. I remember fading Volkov against Tim J (and yes i got robbed) but it was mainly a fade on Volkov's tdd but it's looked much better in the UFC. I haven't watched any tape on this one but i think Volkov's going to take care of Struve.

Agreed. I've been very unimpressed by Bojan, even in victories.

Probably rounds 1 and 2 to till and round 3 to Bojan. He's just inefficient with his energy.

who knows if struve will even shoot? he might decide to bang it out on the feet.

damn Talita and Wilkinson are looking huge

Talita wearing super high heels, tapology listed her as 5cm shorter..?

Wilkinson is either missing weight (by a lot) or gassing 3 minutes in. Talita's leg's looked massive, wouldn't be surpised if she misses either on such short notice.

fwiw Till (and coaches) have said his weight is at a much better spot than previous fights, which should help his cardio. I honestly don't think his cardio is that bad in the first place and Bojan doesn't exactly push a crazy pace. Till should destroy him at range, I just hope he isn't too content to stay against the fence, but judges haven't been siding with grinders at all anyways (new rules or not).

Proof's in the pudding. I favor Till of course but his cardio is probably his worst trait. He copies mcgregor too much including his gas tank.
Like kevin lee says Brazilians dont have a gas tank.

 

[Card]

Was in New Orleans for my brothers bachelor party, I'm still on cloud 9 from the win, I was trying to get on the Long Island card, excited to fight someone in the top 20, I know I will win, I'm going to go to Amsterdam after the fight, Michael Johnson is coming with me, I'm a wrestler, put his sambo against my american wrestling, I'll get the first take down shake him up, then fight him on the feet, Rockhold is training here as well, I'm light this camp but I feel strong, I like frosted flakes, eat it every day, I will get TKO 2nd or 3rd round, he dies down later in the fight

ya she proberly have high heels on but doubt they are that high just tapology listing the wrong information like they often do with height and reach
