What the UFC Isn’t Saying About Volkanovski | Episode 472

Brendan Schaub breaks down Alexander Volkanovski’s latest fight, what went wrong, and what the UFC really does to champions once the momentum slips. From Volk’s future at the top of the division to why some elite fighters never get the rematch they deserve, this episode goes deeper than the headlines.

The crew also dives into UFC matchmaking politics, contender logjams, and how timing matters more than talent at the highest level of MMA. Plus, a look at the business side of combat sports — including boxing power players, promoter leverage, and why certain fights never seem to happen.

If you’re an MMA fan who wants honest takes, behind-the-scenes insight, and conversations that go past surface-level reactions, this episode delivers. Is Volkanovski still championship material, or has the division passed him?
