Sayif Saud is amazing with these breakdowns and I love how Brendan Fitzgerald never interrupts him while being able to transition the conversations into the next topic. Very smooth, very concise, excellent format.
lotta polish on both these fella
Thanks
absolutely phenomenal. Really puts an exclamation point on the pros vs joes. I can see why the UFC hired this dude.
Very solid breakdown! These breakdowns are a part of the Pre-fight ritual. Thanks guys!!! Enjoy the fights 👍🇨🇦
Absolutely right! I love how detailed these are
Makachev is the elite grappler U dont know how good he until u are dominated by him in ground
Did you grapple with him?
I respect volk for taking this fight, cause on paper he has such a low chance of winning. Fighting a bigger stronger guy with also not just elite grappling. Some of the best in mma history
@@Thomson07 yes , most people still underestimate the makachev's grappling without seeing his match against oliveira last year
@@almijar7497 It's even worse, they'll see the match and just say that Olivera was off that night or he's just bad. Olivera's not bad he's absolutely Elite... Makhachev is just that good.
@@Ensiferum888 absolutely man
Ohh first time seeing an analysis by Saif, he did a great job.
Shoulda seen the one for the Islam Vs Oliveira fight
Makhachev is just on another level.
Inbred level?
@@victorpapillon1487 still salty🤣 MCNUGGETS
Dude beat Charles… that’s about it lol everyone else was mid, Bobby green got him a title shot… let that sink in. if Islam wins this fight I’ll give him the respect he deserves but I wouldn’t say he’s on another level with only 1 win in the top 5 just yet.
@Jay yall werent saying that when charles was the champ. Keep hating, it dont change nothing.
@Jay 😭not long time ago " Charles is the best lw ever"
I was hoping the analyst noticed at 6:08, Islam throws a left hook to the head baiting Oliveira to block with his right hand, isolating Oliveira’s arm to set up the head and arm choke. Brilliant little set up. Islam’s grappling transitions are so fast that people don’t notice the subtle intricacies in his movement.
It's probably ingrain in his muscle too.
@@AyoubGhriss Very real possibility. No other gym, team, or country has broken down the wrestling into a mighty weapon that everyone else has yet to overcome. Volkanovski will probably be the most competent fighter to challenge the Dagestan Dynasty. Volk by TKO. Enjoy the fights 👍🇨🇦
The breakdown was so specific and detailed 💯
Saud is always a safe bet for a proper breakdown
The problem with using Mendes vs Volk to show his get up game is Mendes just held him the whole time. He didn't try to trap his wrist or lock up the legs while Islam's gonna do both of those things and on top of being stronger making it even worse. Volk was able to push on the head bc he had a arm to do and I don't think Islam's gonna give him that luxury.
And Mendes doesn’t have submission threats
@@cameronbrooks554 He doesn't use trips and judo throws also.
@@KRATOS825 and Mendes also lacks gas tank , bigness , pressure, strength & he's not Makhachev.
what about surviving and winning against brian Ortega's elite jiujitsu?
@@barsalimbu7478 I think you forgot the best submission artist and the best finisher of ufc too.
Damn look at Islam's back...
@@NotKimiRaikkonen and not the 20+ years of extremely hard training. lmfao
@@NotKimiRaikkonen straight lies USADA said it was for a heart condition he had and he didn’t get in any trouble for it wasn’t performance enhancing. People hate the dagestani so much they just gonna put out misleading information 😂.
Islam is super strong
@@NotKimiRaikkonen yeah, cry about it bobbi pink fanboii
@@NotKimiRaikkonen cope
This is one quality breakdown
Makhachev has the best takedown system in mma.The way he mixes Judo & wrestling is too efficient and clean.
Holy F, Makachev looks EXACTLY how scientists depicts neanderthals. There is no difference LMAO 😂 look at 30:09 And there is an "easy" way how to counter him and I hope Volk does it
Saif is a legend really enjoy watching his analysis videos
It's not too difficult to call and break down a fight after it happened.
Okay.
I hope he does a breakdown on Josh and Yair
@@truthseekerKJV 🤡
Hoping this fight goes 5 rounds so we can see both fighters use all their tools.
No chance
Unfortunately it would be 1st round finish by Islam
Yeah.., a tools like Hammer🔨, baseball-bat, Hockey Stick🏑 Etc Etc Etc... 😬😬😬😁😁😁😁
@@headhunters2815 🤣🤣🤣
no way it goes 5 round
this is probably the first time in sports breakdowns that someone has actually broken it down. usually its just experts stating the obvious thing on screen. crazy how tactical ufc fighting can be.
INSHA'ALLAH Islam Makhachev
Inshallah
aminnnn
InshaAllah
Amen
Ameen
Sayif Saud should be involved more with his breakdowns. The intellectual analysis he brings in unmatched. Give him more opportunities to shine, he's so good at what he does. Let's get his as the 3rd person commentating. Or even cut to him for a brief 30 second explanation during a fight.
This is awesome analyst work. Wish the UFC did this more often for their big fights. Keep it up!

Saud is the best in the game at breaking fight done. Wish I could find more content by him
Sayif saud analysis is always superb. Great breakdown💯
Dan Hardy is levels above him
@@IllidanSturmgrimmDeusVult nope sometimes its even easy to understand like when he's baised. I am not saying he's not good , his analysis are also nice n all but really sometimes he just over praise a fighter against another.
I was and still am a big fan of Dan Hardy breakdown But that doesn't diminish the superb work that Saud does 👏👌👍
Okay. Fascinating.
Stop the hindsight!! ,,👍
WOW! Amazing analysis by Sayif Saud. You delivered professional seminar level breakdowns. Incredible learning experience. Thank you sir! 🙏🏽
Fr. Dude deserves a breakdown bonus. What a masterclass he gave.
This was an absolutely mind-blowing breakdown. Great job Coach Sayif
The analysis was so good, I watched play-by-play sections four times. This is my conclusion. If these two wrestlers were able to take Volk down multiple times, Is;am will take him down, too. Volk survived these two fighters on the ground, it will be difficult to survive Islam. When Khabib and Islam take someone down, they do one of two things (1) ground and pound, which damages, drains the person at the bottom and makes him tired. (2) choke or submit the opponent. It’s always the same strategy, ground and pound, make him tired, submit. How will Volk defend against it. Every other opponent knew what I summarized, yet none of them were able to develop a defense against it.
Wow! Nice breakdown. There is so much calculations in these fights I don't even notice.
Scariest part of all this is that we haven't actually seen what Islam is truly capable of, as no one has been able to really push Islam to that zone.
Same with volk mate, it goes both ways
@@Chris-sf2cp he was pushed against Ortega and max in the second fight… he didn’t dominate like Islam in all his fights
Naah i disagree, there was this Armenian guy( i think) who pushed Islam, the n 8 guy, who called out Chandler.
@@martimihov That fight was competitive but it was not close, it was a unanimous win for Islam. So no, no one has pushed Islam to his full potential yet.
Good to see Sayif Saud getting some shine. Great fella.
Islam will be #1 p4p King InshaAllah
🤔
Beating a smaller opponent doesn't necessarily make you better on a P4P ranking...
@@NotKimiRaikkonenYou’re just salty
@@thatkidjoly so if Islam loses to Alex Pereira, does that mean Alex is better than Islam on a P4P?
@@NotKimiRaikkonen You dont understand what the term Pound for Pound mesns🤦🏻♂️
I really learned a lot from this. Almost as though I could implement some of what Saif said because he broke it down so well lol. I'm not very familiar with him, but I feel as though he did a great job.
Man whats this I subscribed this channel for power slap videos.. cmon 🤷🏻♂️
Hahahahahhaha I'm opening the chatbox to see this kind of comment 🤣 and I found it right away 🤣
Now this is the type of analysis where I have fun watching the Dagestani Chase games.
Hey UFC you need to get Saif on this regularly, his break down is so damn good, we need this as fans.
I always look forward to these analysis videos
Next they will have Sayif breakdown the Ultimate Slap Knockout.
I wish they would hire Luke Thomas instead.
Ultra super mega easy fight for Islam, Islam by submission in round 2. I
30:00 the face trasition shows the energy conservation for longer endurance and his confidence
🤣🤣🤣🤣
This dude breaks it down masterfully, great job..... boom boom boom
I can't believe how close we are. Really looking forward to seeing this.
What a breakdown , respect to coach saif 😊
This guy trained 22 years, have a lot of style to take down 😂
Lmao they think volk training 6 months is gunna be able to stop what Islam has been doing for 20plus years LMAO Islam by rnc in the 2nd
@@sedkrowd5667 BRO I SWEARRRR
@@sedkrowd5667 Volks trained longer than 6 months. Yea it’s not the lifetime commitment that Islam has but this idea that volk has only done wrestling for this camp is wild lol. He wrestled for a while and was national champ, granted that’s not as impressive since it’s Australia but the guys been working for a while and he trains with Craig Jones a lot. He might get ragged but his wrestling is better than a lot of people expect
@@sedkrowd5667 why you acting like this is the first time Volk is training grappling? Delusional 💀
@@WishMount because volk literally said he didn’t do any grappling training whatsoever for any of his Holloway fights, that’s what his recent fights were
Insyaallah still
This breakdown is amazing
At 4:17 when the guy says "Islam has control here" shows Islam with his fingers in Charles glove...I was gonna say this guy is good as a Dan Hardy replacement, but I dunno anymore. A real analyst would call it what it is, a foul.
Inshallah, Islam Will Win.
Remember the good old days when Hardy & Gooden used to breakdown fights for us... Saif is a good replacement tho
Vergin Griffin
Different is, if Islam gets him down, volk is not getting up,he got taken down a few times by Chad Mendez, Islam will keep and submit
Again Coach Sayif with the precise breakdown !
ufc 284 best ever ppv
What a joke
I believe on what Khabib said that Islam is an elite fighter, while Volk's opponents were just good fighter, only Holloway he fought who has better qualities (in boxing, takedown defense and cardio). On Sunday 12 Feb, Volk is going to face a different fighter who has excellent qualities. My prediction, Islam is going to win by submission in 2nd round
Submission 1st round inshallah
Well, that’s the best most accurate informative analysis for this fight! Great expert & would love to see more of him
wow it was perfect explanation. i always wanted to find some experts who explains all this details in fights from ufc. and suddenly i see it first time. great job ! i hope you’ll do also other fight’s details 🥶🔥
I thought for a second, man Bas Rutten looks good... wait, hold up
Very impressive breakdown, love it
Awesome breakdown. I really do hope this fight goes all 5 and is a back/forth close fight, but deep down inside I just dont see Volk being able to defend all the takedowns/submissions.
you called it ,,well done
There's no way volk gonna take care of all those details in Islam's grapling in just 6 or so months. No way 🙅
this was the moment i was waiting for😁
Was eagerly waiting for saif's awesome analysis
You can’t just compare western wrestling /grappling to a Dagestani wrestling/ grappling. This guy forgot Dagestan handcuff.
At this point volk camp could just wait for this ufc 284 breakdown video. What Masterful surgical breakdown by seyf saud ! absolute technical masterclass👨💻👨🏫💥
Volks for already hired high level wrestlers/grapplers/sambists, and he knows how hard it's gonna be on the grappling department. He has to be perfect for 25 mins
Makhachev has undeniably the best ground game in the UFC but I find it strange that he would become the number one P4P after only one title defense. If he was to go up to welterweight and beat someone like Chimaev I would be more convinced with the idea, but beating a small fighter like Volkanovski doesn’t represent (for me) the needed step to be the number one. Anyway, this fight is more about seeing how long Volkanovski will last than him winning.
I think ur confused what p4p means, it doesn’t mean most accomplished, it’s just who is the best fighter if they were to all fight at the same weight class, who do u think would beat him?
Put Volkanovski in there vs. ANY other lightweight and he probably wins it. Just because Islam is better does not mean Volkanovski isn't that good. Volk is exceptional.
Charles: 11 wins streak and was in the conversation for LW GOAT. Volk: 12 wins streak, reigning PFP #1 and most people's FW GOAT. Both dominated their divisions. If Islam dominates Volk like he dominated Charles, it would be hard to argue his PFP #1 status despite the quantity of his defences.
Please keep your eyes on Islam and prepares for tons of excuses. Because in the next 3 years he will defend LW title 5 times and move up to take WW belt and became the GOAT
what was that ,,and he cheated still coundnt finish volk the great the true p4p still ;;
I'm always on the look out for this show
Australia don't have wrestling brader
sayif saud is definetly one of the best in the business!!!
Fantastic analysis!! Sayif Saud even catching Volks corner giving him advice on pushing the head down. Need a lot more of these breakdowns for sure!
Absolutely LOVE These breakdowns
Sjo I mean Islam wrestler, grappler,judo,Sambo his chain wrestler and his got bjj aswell and his striking is underrated his footwork is good and you will see he throws punches or kicks not to land but to get reactions or closing distance Islam is elite ,all respect to volk but his fighting a different beast here, you can't train for this, yes he played rugby and rugby tough you up etc I played rugby all my life, but it won't count in this fight yes he like the brawl he can take it. He hasn't fought a high caliber wrestler in years Islam is good everywhere. 2nd round tko/or submission Volk will understand when Islam take him down what it's all about. I know every fighter needs to be confident he knows what's coming its how to stop it. Love both fighter but I hate it that 2 of my favorite fighters are fighting eachother. And still
Couch is comfortable, well spoken, and natural. Give the man a spot at the desk
Best break downs period. Learn so much.
This was so good, well done by anyone involved.
I didn't realize that rear naked choke style grip to tighten up an arm triangle was so rare. That's how my instructor teaches us to do it! Neat.
Islam WAS Olivera's bad night at the office tho. That aside, this is the second time I've been floored by the quality of this show's analysts. It's just so elucidating.
The best match of the year
Great breakdown. Need more of theses ufc
I don't know,who can break better then this guy deserve huge respect
Volkanovsky's guide on how to defeat Islam)
they always know the plan, they just dont know how to react.
this the best expert analysis I’ve seen so far 👍👍👍 mr. sayif saud must be a master of mma. !!! loves his breakdowns of fights all the time 👍👍👍
Great detailed breakdown.. more unsure than ever for my +320 on Volk
Sayif Saud is doing a great job.. very informative.. thank you
Ya I guys do great work. I really like the play board. Idk why more creators don't use these
Head and arm chokes are very difficult to get
Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov's School is still schooling the world of MMA long after his passing. When did the UFC ever spend a whole hour studying any other fighter?
Wow! a 53 minutes breakdown, I wonder when we gonna see that with the Slap bs
Bro I understand other's fighters skills but these dagestanis are way too strong to handle....only KO can save Volk. I see Islam finish him in 3. Like khabib said: everybody believes until first round. A good fight though....Hyped 🥵
The problem with volks is that he's not a finisher, he's a decision fighter unless his opponent has a bad cardio. So in this fight volks needs to perfect for 25mins.
This analysis and breakdown was the best. Excellent. The best analysis I have seen. This will be an amazing fight. Either fighter can win. Islam is the favorite.
I love me a good fight breakdown and this was a great one!! 👍
i was always been fan of muay thai and kickboxing but when the team eagle enter in arena with their type of wrestling,sambo ju jitsu,judo holy fuk!I loveboth of them Islam and Alex,true warriors
Always the mos accurate, honest and realistic evaluation always
Dos profesionales bendiciones
These guys from Habib's camp fight like fighter pilots. They are in your OODA loop and you are skewered on the horns of their dilemma either way you go, they're 3 steps ahead of you. It's brilliant. These guys win by being smarter, they have better tactics.
They also traveled the world and competed internationally from a young age.
Best analysis by far.. keep it coming
Beautiful analysis
I like people showing response to sayif saud work love you guys and hardcore mma fans
Amazing breakdown of techniques.
Just amazing performance 👏 🙌 😍 ❤
Beautifuls explanations!
