PBP UFC 284 - Makhachev vs. Volkanovski: Main Card PBP Discussion - Sat. 2/11, 10pm ET/7pm PT

[Joinho10]

I have that superfight feeling

 

[Tweak896]

It's as simple as keeping Islam on his feet? You don't say.

 

[Buff]

This crowd is fucking lit.

Imagine the party if he wins.

Its 9am and there's 20,000 people there absolutely loaded already.

Volkanovski getting a big pop from the crowd ….really hoping he can pull it off …place will go ape shit

 

[HuskySamoan]

I wonder what happens if volkanski wins. Do they make Yair defend his title vs that contender? LW is so stacked and the marquee division. Dariush/Charles is coming up soon. Poirier will ask for it. Islam will surely demand a rematch.

Yeah, if Volk wins its very unclear what happens. Most likely he drops one of the titles because you have a 145lb interim title already and Beneil and Fiziev if they win coming up have both more than earned title shots. Meanwhile while 145lbs has an interim champion, Allen may be an even more deserving contender. It's a complete cluster fuck. Most likely Volk loses and we don't worry about it.

If Volk wins, are they gonna have Yair come back to face off against him? I'm not sure I trust that boy in there to not start screaming

 

[Cowboy Kurt Angle]

They are not big fans of Islam as expected

 

[Substance Abuse]

Islam looks tired as fuck. Bah gawd.

 

[sdpdude9]

Not that it means anything but Volk looks more nervous than I’ve ever seen him during that walk out. Understandable though, huge moment for him.

 

[Espresso]

Islam is shook I sense it

 

[Big Tuppy Hole]

Do people really like that song in Australia?

It's our national anthem

 

[Prologue]

Bisping: If Islam Makhacaev wins....

The techno Russian

 

[Milenkovic]

Volk got love handles at 155

 

[Doughie99]

Fantastic atmosphere there in that stadium.
Terrific crowd. Volka must be super pumped.

 

[CatsAndPot]

Men at Work, lol

 

[Thaijitsu612]

No hate towards Islam, I like the Dagestan guys. But I’d love to see volk win….l just can’t imagine how he realistically gets it done though. I think it would be a moral victory to lose by decision for volk.

that said, I’ve doubted him before. I never thought he would beat max so handily.

 

[Volador]

That Dagestani EDM from the mountains hits different

 

[HCS]

Im rooting for Volk, I think he gets the upset

But at the same time, I know its literally all over the moment islam takes him down. Even if he doesnt get the job on done on the first TD, he'll have Volk shook the rest of the fight

And I know what I said makes no sense cause it literally means Islam wins, but I dont think he does. But I do, yenno?
