Former UFC Bantamweight Champion Aljamain Sterling commented on the outcome of the rematch between Islam Makhachev And Alex Volkanovski.
“If we had seen a five-round war in their performance, then the comments would have been different. But the fact that Islam so confidently defeated such a tough opponent as Volkanovski, and even in the first round, albeit on short notice, shows that Islam is not without a reason a champion. The wolf was stunned when he was hit. Almost petrified, and Islam simply finished him off. He was out. When the referee intervened, he admitted that he had had enough.”
Let us remind you that Makhachev knocked out Volkanovski in the first round of their rematch.
