I doubt Volk has any fear of Yair on the ground. he escaped Ortegas best attempts and followed up with ground and pound. Rodriguez is dead dangerous but i think Volk takes him down and finishes the fight with ground and pound. I do have a little nerves for him though because rodriguez could land with something crazy at anytime.
Chandler survived Charles Oliviera on his back but was submitted by Dustin. Alex was owning Ortega and got caught in a guillotine and Alex was still fresh and received little damage. If Yair causes damage and lands body kicks and leg kicks and hurts Alex of course Yair can get a submission. That’s how he caught Emmet who had never been submitted
I really appreciate your detailed analysis. (The only recommendation is a tad bit less rewinding/pausing/rewinding/pausing) it's nice to let it play out then break it down multiple times. Besides that, 👍🏻 great stuff. Im glad BT sports does this and invested in your insight & breakdown abilities.
It’s a fascinating match up. Very hard fight to call or predict. Looking forward to this one. It could go either way but I’d probably lean towards Volk. I’ve doubted Volk in many fights previously and I’ve learned my lesson. Rodriguez could catch him with a knock out head kick or submission but I’m leaning towards Volkanovski for the win. Either way this should be a great fight.
It's a wild one for sure, if Brian Ortega couldn't finish that submission, I dont know if Yair can lol, I just see volk really dominating again, yair is an absolute beast though, cant wait!
@@jackdevlin7553 yeah I pretty much agree with those sentiments. I took me a while to get behind Volk, I doubted him in previous fights which ended up making me look foolish, but I’ve watched him grow into the champion he is and what really cemented that for me was his performance against Makhachev, regardless of the result that was impressive. Yair is a wild one though, he will need to be careful but I think Volk gets it done, maybe by decision.
yair trained with belal in this camp (for his wrestling)so im sure when volka is shaking in his boots and cant handle yairs striking hes gonna wanna bring the fight to the ground yair will be ready for it
I think Volk is going to crowd the kicker Yair, from the get go Volk will be keeping him guessing with the fients but its a 25 minute fist fight so anything is possible Volk is human he can be hurt.
Yeah Yair is just sooooo dangerous. He's kinda like Oliveira with just how dangerous he is, though maybe not to the same degree. Oliveira vs Volk would be amazing now that I think about it.
I mean as easily as the circumstances can change for Volk not paying attention or coasting (Doubt that'll be the case) same thing can be said for Yair, if he throws recklessly which is more likely to happen and gets taken down and kept there for a whole round it'll be costly and will affect his thinking going forward in the fight
@@chukwubuchiemmanuelnwachuk2302 yairs way more explosive the consequences of getting hit by yair are far worse than getting hit by max and he already almost got knocked out by one of maxs headkicks in their second fight
I love Volk and I think he's the GOAT but this fight has me really fear for him. I think if Volk can repeatedly take Yair down and control him he smashes Yair. But I don't think Volk can risk standing with Yair
@@john-paulroberts533 completely different style of striking. Max is much more of a boxer where Volk has consistently been rocked/dropped with headkicks, which Yair is much better at. I still think Volk wins though
Deal with the kicking by tackling like a rugby player, which Volk was. Head and shoulders inside kicking range, driving through the targets hips with shoulders and upper arms with the target five meters behind the defender. Not a take down. Driving tackles.
The name 'Korean Zombie' sounds childish and unprofessional. MMA fighters should be paid as much as boxers.. I think we should only call them by their names.
Shame on the UFC for letting this man go. Good commentator, excellent analyst
Let him go for a woman who wasn't doing her job properly smh
STOP THE COMPLAINING!!
@@kevinbond3656 how's that boot taste, kev?
@@EwMuva STOP THE COMPLAINING!!
yes this comment will make ufc feel ashamed
Easily one of the best analysts in the game. Every single one of these is worth a watch pre-fight.
Lol, MMA Guru's son is still analysing the GSP loss .
Just the best analyst, by miles. Pick up on more from DH than everyone else combined
guru's son
Jack slack is good too
Ive said it before and Ill say it again. UFC fumbled the bag by not having this guy cage side commentating.
Nothing out there like a Dan hardy breakdown what a legend
They really need to bring Dan Hardy back. best analyst I have seen
Dan makes me proud to be British (and I’m Mexican)
Dan’s breakdown of Yair’s last second KO gave me chills. Made me see it in a completely different light!
combo of Showtime & JJ is on one of the best analogies I've heard re describing Yair 💪
Dan is the man when it comes to ufc fight breakdowns. I cant wait for this fight.
Love your breakdowns Dan keep up the good work
The more I watch Dan's amazing breakdowns, the more I realise how quickly I'd lose in a fight against a professional fighter 😂
Incredible breakdown as ever from Dan the man!
I doubt Volk has any fear of Yair on the ground. he escaped Ortegas best attempts and followed up with ground and pound. Rodriguez is dead dangerous but i think Volk takes him down and finishes the fight with ground and pound.

Yair submitted Ortega, he's a very different puzzle to Ortega on the ground
Chandler survived Charles Oliviera on his back but was submitted by Dustin. Alex was owning Ortega and got caught in a guillotine and Alex was still fresh and received little damage. If Yair causes damage and lands body kicks and leg kicks and hurts Alex of course Yair can get a submission. That’s how he caught Emmet who had never been submitted
Volk dealt with islam
@@ddulguerovno he didn't
@@ddulguerovno he didn’t lol he KO’d him
Damn I never noticed the lead up and the guard from Yair vs Korean Zombie 😲 nice Analysis Dan! Can't wait for this weekend!

Im a simple man. I see a Dan Hardy breakdown show, I watch it
Dan Hardy does the best analysis in the biz.
Finally its available in my country.
best break downs on internet. what's the old school boxing thing Dan says Volks use? got a bit lost there... greetings from ArGENTINA
The teddy atlas of mma- Dan the outlaw Hardy
Dan Hardy is one of the best analysts in the game! 🥶
Best analyst in mma with Cruz.
Bring him back as commentary instead of Cormier.
great breakdown. cheers from Poland!

Dan hardy is the best
Topuria vs Rodriguez is the fight to make if Yair doesn't beat Volk. That would be so interesting
No allen
@@TransitionedToASharkAllen vs Ortega makes more sense
okay but who does volk fight if tuporia loses to rodriguez
@@Ricardo0777 winner of Dustin and Justin later this year
@@joesladden9914 why one earth would justin/dustin, who are after a title shot go against volkavoski for absolutely no reason
Best in the game, looking forward to the scrap. One of those fights, Volk is the P4P for a reason, but Yair is always demon level dangerous.
Thanks for giving eyes to the blind
yess finally available in america!
Volkonvski for the W , will a machine (Volk) be able to break down human creativity (Yair) ? What a banger !
Topulia is the next Goat. Make my words.
yair trained with belal in this camp (for his wrestling)so im sure when volka is shaking in his boots and cant handle yairs striking hes gonna wanna bring the fight to the ground yair will be ready for it
Feel like I should be paying for this
Or not bt make enough money
Pfl got it right man. So happy Dan got out from under Dana's thumb
Dan makes me proud to be British (and I’m Mexican). Yair’s fighting style is like art. Beautiful and deadly..
Hahaha I had to read that twice lol
The best in the business
Alex THE GREAT is about to show how far off the pace Josh Emmet really was from a title with a solid win over Yair
I forgot how good dans breakdowns are with vids.
But yall crazy thinking this fight will be close. Come back after the fight and tell me I'm right.
Great breakdown as always!
Holy shiet 1 hour of analysis! Cheers bruva!
Is Dan moving up to heavyweight for his comeback?
cheers dan
I think Volk is going to crowd the kicker Yair, from the get go Volk will be keeping him guessing with the fients but its a 25 minute fist fight so anything is possible Volk is human he can be hurt.
Yeah Yair is just sooooo dangerous. He's kinda like Oliveira with just how dangerous he is, though maybe not to the same degree.
Oliveira vs Volk would be amazing now that I think about it.
Tporia vs yair next
him and Wonderboy are the best kickers in the UFC
they can box too
"There can only be one!" - love that movie. :)
UFC took a big L letting go of Dan
If Yair isnt careful in what he throws this could end up like the Zombie fight Volk will batter him for 5 rounds or until its stopped.
Yair is a pretty great striker up close too. Watch Max vs Yair again, amazing stuff.
Dan being a little bit cheeky in this episode 🌝
Landslide win for volk, Yair might win 1 round - volk is too composed for this weight division (Yair will get frustrated)
The speed and timing that Volk has continued to improve may be a big factor here.
Thanks Dan.Throughly enjoyed as all who watched. Go Volk!!¡
I mean as easily as the circumstances can change for Volk not paying attention or coasting (Doubt that'll be the case) same thing can be said for Yair, if he throws recklessly which is more likely to happen and gets taken down and kept there for a whole round it'll be costly and will affect his thinking going forward in the fight
Go Volkanovski! 🏆🦘 AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!!!
Yair’s fighting style is like art. Beautiful and deadly.
Ilia Topuria is coming for that belt let's go El Matador
He doesn’t beat Allen , Holloway , volk or yair
He hasn’t beat anyone yet. Do Allen Vs Top next
@@HENRY-ub8dfOrtega smokes him too
@@TransitionedToAShark idk man Ilia thrives against grapplers. It’s the best matchup for him in the top 5 imo🤷🏼♂️
Chooo chooo!!!!
The drive in the punch is hard bcos he uses the shoulder plus hip power
love the show
Best Analsyt ever!! Keep it up Brother ❤
Let’s go volk
Best in the game Dan Hardy !
Bro I cried watching this.
Yair is the most exciting fighter to watch
Nar, sorry that is Charles’ claim
Alex will wrestle for his life. He’s not standing with Yair for long lol
Yet he stood with Max??
@@chukwubuchiemmanuelnwachuk2302 yairs way more explosive the consequences of getting hit by yair are far worse than getting hit by max and he already almost got knocked out by one of maxs headkicks in their second fight
Max is a volume puncher. Not much of a kicker and primarily a decision winner. Yair hits much harder and unpredictable
@@someguy7474 yet Max beat Yair
@@chukwubuchiemmanuelnwachuk2302 max beats everyone. He smoked ortega who almost beat Alex
Alex "low center of gravity" Volkanovski
Alex "5'11 is his rugby days" Volkanovski
Frankie Edgar showed everyone the way but people still want to give Yair too much room. Just what he needs for his triple lux attacks.
Actually sad he doesn’t do more or the whole card tbh
Chan sung jung highlight reel 😂
Honestly think this will be volks toughest test yet , but I still think he wins by a dominant performance
Islam and max and nelson beat him tho
@@TransitionedToASharkhe beat the breaks off Max, cope.
@@TransitionedToASharkhe beat Islam everyone knows it also smashed max 3 times 😂
@@TransitionedToASharkVolk smashed Islam. Islam won, but his will was broken by the end of that fight.
@@justinmadison513 he was dead round 5. But this is a sport. Not a street fight
The best analyst there is
John gooden is a great colour commentator and really got shafted along with Dan. Shame he's not getting more work
Dan has put on some weight.
It would be interesting if both Yair and Volk watches this video and comes prepared for the fight 😂
He does those three punches as what Bruce Lee does as Attack By Combination. The ABC of striking
Is it just me or we aint seen dan hardy in a while..
Simple. Volk SMASH!
I’m glad the Mma Guru allowed Dan to continue his career
When’s your next fight, Dan?
VOLK ALL DAY 🇦🇺 🪃
I love Volk and I think he's the GOAT but this fight has me really fear for him. I think if Volk can repeatedly take Yair down and control him he smashes Yair. But I don't think Volk can risk standing with Yair
Volk won’t stand with Yair for long lol
Volk will school yair, like Max did.
Mate he stood with Max who’s arguably the best stand up fighter in the division?
@@john-paulroberts533 completely different style of striking. Max is much more of a boxer where Volk has consistently been rocked/dropped with headkicks, which Yair is much better at. I still think Volk wins though
Franky*
Yiere he's quite the crafty fellow , My favorite is when yeah your cuss is out Michael Bisping, He says some s*** like mama, la pinguea
Deal with the kicking by tackling like a rugby player, which Volk was.
Head and shoulders inside kicking range, driving through the targets hips with shoulders and upper arms with the target five meters behind the defender.
Not a take down.
Driving tackles.
I don't think yair rodriguez's height plays into it considering he's always fighting taller fighters.
Volk smash pls 🔥
Volk has always been weak at defending kicks up the middle, if Volk loses it's from a kick to the head.
Yair gonna kick volks chin in
Yair ftw !
Respect to yair but volk is gonna beat him like a pinata at a fiesta
If ortega couldnt finish volk with a sub then yair def wont
Volko boutta get slept by yarir
VoIkanovski I see it going 5 rounds but just Hurd people think volkanovski loosing no fuckck way no chance
Armchair Pro😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Bro Shdddap
🎉🎉🎉
Seems to me, that at this point, Dan, both here and in his War Room breakdown, is fully infatuated with Rodriguez.
Hardy looking full blown soy
do u have a dentist
Over an hour long, give it a rest
they have always been an hour long what’s the differneve
The name 'Korean Zombie' sounds childish and unprofessional. MMA fighters should be paid as much as boxers.. I think we should only call them by their names.
Without googling, what's Korean Zombie's full name
Let’s go Volk!!
