Both Islam Makhachev and Alexander Volkanovski have been dominant in their UFC careers, but Makhachev is still the overwhelming favorite. Volkanovski certainly has the edge in striking, but since joining the UFC, Makhachev has taken minimal damage over his 13 UFC fights. He has only ever been knocked out once and that was his second ever UFC fight. On top of that, Makhachev is an elite grappler and would prefer to do most of his work on the ground. Volkanovski has seen his last 6 UFC fights in a row go over 2.5 rounds, while 5 of Makhachev's last 7 UFC fights have done the same. For that reason, backing this fight to go over 2.5 rounds will be the play.
