@Konner30522348 @MMAFIXED Well the only person your lying to is yourself, he’s literally maybe the most talented prospect in the sport. If you watch him fight he’s extremely good on the ground, his standup is slick and powerful and he pushes a pace not too many fighters can keep up with
@mattlikesmma@YanGlazer2 Stop lying to yourself, max didn’t even bleed in his fight with Charles. Volk rearranged Max’s face, Volk also dropped and stunned Islam multiple times, Charles couldn’t even touch Islam
@Daystar0013@YanGlazer2 Since when did Charles become so overrated, if someone has takedown defence Charles offers nothing. Volk will do Charles bad even at 38
@Aiden_2207@RoxcRollin4@YanGlazer2 Volk at lightweight does have power though, he hurt Islam on multiple occasions and he’s a lot more accurate than someone like Max. He stunned Diego lopes multiple times too who arguably has the best chin in mma
@UfcHonest@GabrielOmar780@Alim_8905@TopuriaLand Ilia is definitely an easier fight for Charles than Islam. Charles doesn’t really have a path to victory against Islam, Islams just better everywhere. There’s a clear path to victory against ilia, he just needs to try and make sure he subs him quick because ilia can KO him easy
@elandroiiide@Felicianoxyep@McGregorRousey2 That’s just not true, ilia was clearly trying to grapple max early but max would bounce right back to his feet. This is why ive always said ilia’s wrestling is overrated, he has good takedowns but his top control is trash
@elandroiiide@Felicianoxyep@McGregorRousey2 I don’t think Max’s anti grappling is as bad as people are saying, ilia couldn’t even hold max down, Volk could hold him down but he only went 3-8 on takedowns. I genuinely think Charles looked just way stronger than max in the clinch, max was defending well but got outmuscled
@JonathanJJLLL@certifiedzester If your saying Volk, Volk is probably staying at 145 until he clears it out again so unless Charles comes down which would be a massive mistake because at 145 he gets folded, at 155 he at least has a chance but I still think Volk dominates Charles at 155
@GabrielOmar780@Alim_8905@TopuriaLand I think Charles had the wrong gameplan against ilia, that gameplan worked against someone like max because max is ineffective off the back foot. If Charles relies more on his kicks against ilia and work him back to cage that way he definitely could beat ilia
@WillTheSkillet2@BMikaas@THATBOYMMAGURU If Islam ran away from ilia then I guess ilia ran away from Diego lopes or movsar. Same logic different fighters, bros saying “we” in 2026, Charles has never put anyone out cold in his life
