ortega ain't choking this no neck having ass brick shithouse volk

i ain't seen ortega's last fight though because watching zombie getting dismantled will probably break my heart - i hear he looked vastly improved with his striking though

ortega seems to carry a lot of intangibles with him: unorthodox striking, sniper jiu jitsu, tremendous durability and above all a will to win even late into a fight he is losing - he has done this like half dozen times - but hasn't needed it in his last two victories.

volk though, man. say what you will about his two fights with max (where he convincingly won the first, and the second was splitting hairs) to be able to go 50 minutes with holloway in what is essentially a kickboxing bout, when you're the smaller striker whose base isn't really striking -- that's fucking crazy. even if max dropped him twice in the rematch, just says that much more about his doggedness.

i suspect volk will win a decision, and if ortega were to win it would not be by points, but my bet is the former.

i've got nick and rozenstruick also.
