This time only Movsar and Rematch makes the most sense. But the problem is that Movsar has 0 finish out of his 8 fights and Volk will need at least 6 month if not more to recover from this. Therefore, in the meantime, he can fight Connor for exposure and money. He is gonna be the next big thing, superstart of ufc soon if he fights Connor in Spain.

  • Dude, every time the media start saying stuff like "this champ is the GOAT of x division" it always goes sideways. Same shit happened when they started comparing Izzy to Anderson and Kamaru to GSP. Just goes to show how hard it is to stay at the top for as long as some of the older champs have (Aldo, GSP, Anderson, etc.). Recency bias is a very real thing and invincibility is just an illusion. Every dominant champ's reign comes to an end eventually. I'm still in a bit of disbelief at how quick and abruptly that one ended.

    • Big fan of him, if you saw his earlier UFC fights you know what he’s capable of. But Volk is my guy, was rooting for him 100% and I was so afraid this would happen. People talk about Topuria’s power, but that’s not the main thing, it’s the way he cuts off the octagon and traps you by the cage, the he goes for the KO. Damn, honestly didn’t think he’d do Volk like that…😮
