Guys. 30 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 1: This fight card was built around Alexander Volkanowski. It was 31 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: built around the idea that Australia's thirty seven year old 32 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: champion could still get the job done against a young 33 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: challenger who in the first fight against them for a 34 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: very competitive fight down the stretch, hurting Volkanowski a couple 35 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: times as the fight got long. Tonight artist afternoon because 36 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,839 Speaker 1: right now it's only four pm in Australia. Alexander Volkanowski 37 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: fought even better, guys. He actually went out there against 38 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 1: Diego Lopez and beat him better than he did the 39 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: first time. His footwork was amazing, right, which is something 40 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 1: that we have come to expect. 41 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 2: His striking was amazing. 42 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 1: I think what impresses me most of my both He 43 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: wasn't able to get any takedowns, but he's so good 44 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: at dictating the exchanges, dictating when a fight takes place, 45 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: that guys can't really figure him out. And tonight that 46 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: was the case. Artist Afternoon, that was the case. Diego 47 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: Lopez fought better than he did the first time, especially 48 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: earlier in the fight. He did a better job of 49 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 1: pressing forward. He did a better job of trying to 50 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 1: impose his will on Alexander Volkanowski, but that didn't change. 51 00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 2: Both got one takedown in the first fight. 52 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 1: Second fight, he got one takedown, But even though he 53 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 1: wasn't able to get takedowns, he was able to dominate 54 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,239 Speaker 1: the fight in a way that when I walk into 55 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: the octagon to get the decision, there was no question 56 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,679 Speaker 1: that volcanovs get won. It was just a matter of 57 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: whether or not you thought he won four rounds off 58 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: he won five rounds. I am of the belief that 59 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: alex probably won all five rounds. You could give him 60 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: the second round, but I don't think that was far 61 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: from a dominant round. 62 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 2: By Diego Lopez. 63 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: You know, I think what we don't give volk enough 64 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:43,119 Speaker 1: credit for is his fight iq, his ability to adjust 65 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: in fight, his ability to get better in fight, his 66 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: ability to take whatever his opponent is giving him, and 67 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: then switch whatever he's doing right away. You know, in 68 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: the post fight interview, generally, when a person wins a 69 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: belt or wins a fight, they're so full of energy 70 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: and they're so excited and they're so happy that while 71 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: they can talk to the interviewer, they are so jazzed 72 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: up that it's hard to really put sentences and thoughts together. 73 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,799 Speaker 1: Putting thoughts together, whenever you win a fight, it's difficult. 74 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: But not Alexander Volcanowski. I asked him, I said, well, 75 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: how did you do it? 76 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 2: Better vote? 77 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 1: And he goes, well, the first time we fought, I 78 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: was circling to the left or to the right, right 79 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: away from the power of Diego Lopez. He goes, he 80 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: cut that off really well immediately, So then I just 81 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: started going to the other direction. In the middle of 82 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 1: the fight, Michael and I were questioning why he was 83 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: circling into the power of Diego Lopez. 84 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,799 Speaker 2: That was by change, that was by choice. 85 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: He chose to circle back towards the power because Diego is. 86 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 2: Too good at cutting off the other side. 87 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: But while the game plan to do that may be 88 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: surprising to some, it's surprising to me because he was 89 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: able to put that bought together. When all of his 90 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: family is with him inside the octagon, they're rapping a 91 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: belt around his waist, there are twenty thousand people in 92 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: the arena cheering his name. 93 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 2: Like that is. 94 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: An experience that most people cannot handle. It's too much joy. 95 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: But voc was able to not only deal with all 96 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: those emotions, formulate that sentence and tell me exactly what 97 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 1: he wants. Now, what's special by him is he'll fight anybody. 98 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: Nobody wants to fight Mousar. Nobody wants to fight Lroon. 99 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: Volcan's like, well, if their next, that's who I'm fighting. 100 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: He's not trying to pick fights, he's not trying to 101 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 1: get the easiest path. He just wants to fight those guys. 102 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you he's the greatest featherweight of all time. 103 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: I know we love Jose Aldo, I know we love 104 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: Max Holloway, but he just won his EIGHTHFC featherweight title fight. 105 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: Four of those victories are against Halloway and Aldo, the 106 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: two other guys considered the greatest feather waits of all time. 107 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 2: It was Volkanowski's night. He's the best in the world 108 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 2: man and He's as good as they come. 109 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: The guy is tremendous and I really don't see him 110 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: slowing down anytime soon. 111 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 2: He's too committed. 112 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: So congratulations to the champion once again. Did the energy 113 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 1: in this place when he walked out. I'm gonna drop 114 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: the video so you guys. 115 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 2: Can hear this place went crazy. 116 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: I don't think you on TV it would have did 117 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: it justice as to exactly what we were hearing out 118 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: here when. 119 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 2: Volkanowski walked out. 120 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: Ben was Stany beat Dan Hooker to win his fourth 121 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: fighting row. Look at Miles in the back doing his job. 122 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: Ben Wastiny beat Dan Hooker to win his forth fight 123 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: fight in a row. When I spoke to Benoir on Wednesday, 124 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: I asked him, are you gonna be more patient? 125 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 2: Are you gonna take your time? 126 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 1: He goes. I have every attention to he goes, but 127 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: I always my attention is always. Look, this is what 128 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:01,479 Speaker 1: he said to me exactly. My attention is always to 129 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: be better, he goes. I know what he I want 130 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: to do in the fight. Everyone had the game plan, 131 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: but when the fight, the fight start, it goes. He said, Listen, 132 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: I'm just going forward. It's gonna be a class like 133 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: he knows that he wants to be more careful. He 134 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: can't help himself. He's just an all action fighter. And 135 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: Dan Hooker did really good to start the fight. But 136 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: then ben Watchers started doing ben Wa fingsman pressing, pressing, pressing, 137 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: being a bit reckless but ultimately still getting the job done. 138 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: And then when he got on top, he was able 139 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: to force Dan Hooker into Dan trying to take him down, 140 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: knowing that ben Wall was the. 141 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 2: Better grappling, better scrambler. 142 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: What happens ben Wind's up on top, finishes around either 143 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: in mount or trying to finish an arm triangle. It 144 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: was crazy, it was impressing. A couple of years ago, 145 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: ben Chandni asked to fight Dustin Pourier. 146 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 2: When he wanted New York. I kind of laughed at him. 147 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: I said, well, you don't score, or you don't hit 148 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: the shots you don't take, so you gotta take it 149 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: ben Wi Haha. 150 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 2: He got that fight, he got beat. 151 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: Then he lost again, but ever since then he switched teams. 152 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: Not this guy's on an absolute tear because not only 153 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: is he winning, he's finishing. 154 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 2: All these fighters. 155 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: So Benji Santanino deserves one of those big fights, and 156 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: I believe that he's. 157 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 2: Gonna get one of him. He's right number eight in 158 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 2: the world right now. 159 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: But he's gonna be much higher come next week. Hi 160 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: to e Vasa and passing the sea. That was crazy, man, 161 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: for the news to be that exhausted down the stretch. 162 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: I don't know what they have to do in order 163 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,239 Speaker 1: to improve the cardiopen. 164 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 2: That was crazy. 165 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: Quillan South killed once again, gets a submission this time 166 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: and gets a finish. We all fell in love with 167 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: a striking after that beautiful head kick, but South kills 168 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: a grappler. 169 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 2: And tonight that showed against Jamie Mlarkey. 170 00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: Great job Quillen, Billy alacanell Haut Junior Tafa, and it 171 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: started bad for Billy Alakana. 172 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 2: He was losing the striking, but he always knew that 173 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 2: if he. 174 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: Got a takedown he could go and try to submit 175 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: the great striker that is Junior Tafa. He did exactly 176 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: that took him down, took his back, green naked. 177 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 2: Choke finish over Cameron Rawson is the real deal. 178 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 1: He's good man.

I coached Finney. 182 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: I thought this was the greatest matchup for Torres Finney. 183 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: That was proven wrong tonight with the performance of Jacob Malcole. 184 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: Benny did tear his LCL in the very first round. 185 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:51,319 Speaker 1: So we'll see what happened with Jake. When Torres, Jonathan 186 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: Mikolef was getting beat by Old Van Elliott took him 187 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 1: to the ground, submitted him.
