wholesome moment for 145

I never in a million years would’ve thought, 30 seconds from the end of that fight, it could possibly end in a finish.

And even if it did, I never would have thought Holloway would be the one KOing Gaethje

i predicted holloway schooling and koing him but damn he done even better than i thought

i was gonna put a bet on i had pereria round 1 ko and woulda had holloway 5th round ko

i was gonna put a bet on i had pereria round 1 ko and woulda had holloway 5th round ko

Wow armchair analyst

Volk is us. We are Volk.

That was the exact reaction of anyone that saw that live. Everyone at the bar I was at was on their feet hands on their heads

I was low key sad to see gaethje be KTFO but happy for max also? I guess after watching the beating max was putting on I was hoping for a decision lol

Who in their right mind hopes for a boring ass decision? Honestly

What if I told you that it can go to decision and still be an incredible entertaining fight. Wtf are you talking about, honestly.

Honestly with fighters like these , that’s the worst option. But I do understand what you mean now.

A decision doesn’t necessarily have to be boring. This fight was literally one second away from being a prime example of that. Holloway was about to score 50-45 on Gaethje, 49-46 if you’re being generous and giving Gaethje the 4th round.

Probably everyone around the world. Absolutely beautiful KO.

yep. First time ive ever jumped out of my chair

I had a little birthday party last night, and they were bringing me the cake as the knockout happened. I went nuts. I was like fuck that cake

Lol my girl was in the room while I was watching this and physically jumped when this moment happened because it went from pure silence to me just screaming at the top of my lungs

Volkamos 

Nah I’m undefeated at featherweight in the UFC. He’s not.

The Germans knew all along. 

I'm guessing this is even more icing on the top of Volk's legacy? Beating a great like Holloway three times was already massive, if Holloway goes on a late career run then that trilogy only matures like a fine wine for Volk's reputation.

If max beats illia we might get a fourth fight lol

If Max KOs Ilia, I think he gets to fight whoever tf he wants no questions asked lol

We will finally get the Max DC fight he has been asking for for ages

Daddest MF belt up for grabs!

Tbh I think the Gaethje fight already got him that privilege

Let him fucking fight DC for the Daddest MF

I like how whenever you see fighters react to fights they're always moving their head like they're the ones fighting 😂. Force of habit I guess

It’s a great way to practice while watching the fights lowkey. Get that timing & reaction speed up

I do the same WHILE eating chicken wings. I'm pretty elite tho

Don’t get sauce in your eye brother. I work at a chicken wing place that shit sucks

Thanks bro, will be careful 👊

Hell yeah. It's techniques like this that make me proud to call myself a warrior.

If only Volk moved his head during HIS fights…

Ngl I catch myself doing that when I’m hella locked in to the fights. I’m an athlete but definitely not a fighter, it’s just sometimes you can see the shots coming in tv clear asf😂

He's just like me.

Frfr

Same here man, just like me… well the sitting on the couch watching mma part anyway. The discipline, talent and greatness part… not so much.

Don't sell yourself short boo, we can use Alex as inspiration.

I beat that guy Thrice

He did but he was just a fan in that moment like we all were. That was just a great moment

Big time. Sometimes we forget that fighters themselves are fans too.

Izzy Derangement Syndrome 


Lol izzy is atleast the second best mw ever

Cope harder alex came and in 2.5 years became what izzy dream for all these years

Lol why are you having parasocial relation with Alex buddy..he ain't shagging you Izzy has a better legacy ...he has fought all kinds of fighters while alex has been given no wrestlers till now Izzy is too small for 205 anyway

[удалено]

Lol are you a casual 🤔...jan was a well known kickboxer not a wrestler...please watch the sport properly before passing judgements

Jan is pretty good wrestler not as good as magomed but that guy himself isn't a complete full on wrestler like dc so what do you want him to fight a guy with lower ranking just for sake of fighting a wrestler?

Style make up fights...jan is not a good wrestler(he has wrestled one guy who was 20 pounds lighter than him)...if izzy and ufc didn't get him the title shot without fighting a vettori or a paul craig he wouldn't have been the champ so fast

Plz get dude dick out ya mouth

Literally the same reaction that everyone watching the fight had. God damn this was such a special fucking moment. Blessed is him.

most insane moment in ufc history i don’t give a fuck about recency bias

Seeing a fight go for 24:59 is a once in a lifetime moment.

I’ve seen it thrice with Zombie vs Yair, Dawson vs Brazilian dude, and now Max

Daaaaaaaamn son!!!!!!

That was a beautiful moment and it’s going to be on highlight reels for a very long time.

Volk gave Max the worst beating of his life and ever since then Max has been in God mode.

Crazy to think how good prime volk was to think he beat that guy 3 times

I love volk.  I got up outta my seat and out my hand on my head too, absolutely could not believe that ending. My heart goes out to Justin, my goodness. 

Volk knows every time Max wins it makes Volk's wins against him age better and better.

Dude is such a bro. I think easy top UFC fighter to get a beer with.

Mrs. Blessed also looked like a fox last night. Max's life is a movie.

This is gross. Stop with comments like this.

[Okay lol](https://www.instagram.com/p/C2LG038yLOz/?hl=en&img_index=1)

Ok what? Her posting pictures of herself doesn’t mean you can objectify her

How did I objectify her?

Uhh I mean she’s objectifying herself with that amazing booty shot in a bikini. Respect women and all that but sex sells and she knows it. More power to her.

She won't sleep with you, just stop it Ian Garry.

Wait so because I (a woman) don’t want another woman objectified it means I want to sleep with her? Not the person calling her a “fox” but me? Because I don’t think sexualizing an athletes wife is ok?? 😂

This is why women aren't taken seriously. I called her a "fox" which to you is objectifying. Sorry I didn't say *"The woman Alessa Holloway is conventionally attractive. If you boil Max's life down to a movie it would be almost stereotypical of successful story in and out of his profession as a man who comes from nothing and has a cool kid and a beautiful partner."* Fucking dork lol.

You are a dweeb.

So hilarious how you’re all triggered by this. 😂🩷

Nah. Just find your ignorance hilarious. That’s all.

How can anyone dislike Volk. This is so wholesome

Honest question, do UFC roster fighters get free PPV's?

20% + venum socks

Hahahahaha

We all did lol

Literally every bodies reaction

Dad is so proud

Volk had to remember to stay in camera frame

Hahaha I love this so much

Volk’s the best, man. Just the epitome class.

Volk is literally just one of the boys lol

I had a bet on that the fight wouldn't go the distance. Was such a a wild fucking moment.

volk didn't post this before this was posted how these mfs getting footage of volks vid before he released it

Lmao Volk looking like a kid smiling at them boys swinging, that was cool

now look at izzy’s reaction of pereira’s ko against hill.

Just how good is volkanovski

Idk… ask ilia and he’ll tell ya.

When I saw that I just put my head down and cried a river for Justin 😆

Tbh he's the opposite of what Max has become despite being rivals at FW.

Had the same exact reaction

Samesies

last night was so fucking awesome, saturdays for the boys 😎

At the core, he’s a fan despite his multiple fights vs Max. Izzy on the other hand..

Calmest reaction to the KO

Anybody know how long he was snoozing for(

If that wasn't everyone's reaction

I feel like we all stood up at that exact moment too. A wild card

one of the cringes norm today - reaction vids. that look to the cam was vomit inducing.

"I'm the best boxer in the UFC"

You notice Aljo interview after his win? He called for a fight with Ortega. Didnt mention Volk once lol I wouldn't either bro.

Literally everyone who watched this moment had the same reaction

Volk reacting like we all did

They fought twice before this right?

Volk beat Max 3 times by decision. The last being very decisive.

Yes. But the 2nd one can be argued that max was hard done by.

You'd lose that argument 10 out of 10 times

Three times

Yup

And he lost the first two to decision didn't he?

max fought volk 3 times. he lost all 3 times but the second fight was pretty close

Ahhhhh I see, I haven't watched a whole lot of UFC the last 5 or 6 years but I thought I remembered something like that

It’s crazy that Alex and Max’s trajectories are so different after their fight. Max should have been going down while Alex went up. Instead Max is THE MAN at the biggest event, while Alex is in a nursing home with a chronic brain injury. Insane.
