Apr 27, 2015 · Makhachev’s forearms keep him from getting chest to chest, but he’s still able to cut an angle outside and force Makhachev to turn his own back to the cage to maintain the position. A moment after the sequence above, they found themselves in the clinch again and this time Volkanovski was able to use the forearm frame to disengage, turning his overhooked elbow inwards and limp-armping out.

Mar 6, 2016 · Reaction score. 4,270. Oct 11, 2023. #1. I was watching the DC/Islam interview after Volk replaced Chucky and found it very suprising to hear DC say Mak was walking around 200lbs, he replies and says obviously now he is close to fight he is 183-184 which is still pretty crazy. No wonder this dude needs 35+ hours to rehydrate, so Islam weight ...
Mar 23, 2021 · So the hate should be towards Makhachev and Khabibs fan base, it is not. It’s directly towards Makhachev, people on here calling him weight bully 200+lbs!!!, a IV cheat, how he only fights in Abu Dhabi(fought only 3x) and 11x outside of the UAE.

Nov 2, 2019 · Islam Has Better Judo Than Wrestling: MMA media and fans rave about Makhachev’s wrestling but the reality is that wrestling is often cancelled out when he faces other high-level wrestlers. Islam scores most of his takedowns against competent wrestlers by utilizing judo throws and trips in the...
Nov 23, 2013 · Oct 26, 2020. #6. There are more photos of him sporting a judo black belt. But I don’t doubt it if he says he is not a black belt. There is always mention of his father holding Master of Sports title in both Sambo & Judo. That title is specific to the Russian Federation. And yes, their focus is on Sambo.

Dec 9, 2023 · It's gonna be Arman, great match up. I think Islam will take it via decision, 49-46. I think since the first fight Islam has become more of an elite fight through fighting better comp and the championship experience. And I think the winner or Olivera/Chandler lines up for a title fight later in the year.

Nov 2, 2017 · And he's equiped well enough to prevent takedowns and have a rough clinch battle vc Islam. I'd say it'd be a very good fight but I think Shavkat maintains his 100% submission--tko wins vs Islam. Though idk, let's see how Islam fares without having to cut weight, it may make his takedowns easier with more muscle mass.
Dec 9, 2023 · If Islam just hid behind rudimentary protective striking to set up the takedown he wouldn’t be nearly as exciting. Islam is technically solid everywhere and still looks to bring excitement and bang. He’s breaking the crotch sniffing mold and turning into a a bit of a JBG hybrid.
