Alexander Volkanovski vs Movsar Evloev

7.5/10

I predicted for this fight to essentially repeat R1 5 times. I thought Movsar was doing more damage in times where he was pressuring than Volk was and gave Movsar R1, but Volk compromises Movsar with his pressure in the second and gets him out of there in a spectacular feel good way. I really hope Volk was actually sick, because he looked distinctly slower at the start than previous outings for the title. If Movsar survived an extra 6 seconds, I think we had a very compelling tight race for the win on the cards where Movsar steals a round and keeps all others close to 50/50.
