Dana White consoled UFC heavyweight Alexander Volkov after losing his rematch to Ciryl Gane at UFC 310.
heavyweight Alexander Volkov was rightfully confused upon learning he had lost a split decision against Ciryl Gane on Saturday night at UFC 310.Volkov had some choice words regarding the scorecards during his post-fight media scrum. He felt he had done enough to win the UFC 310 rematch, which snapped a four-fight unbeaten run.. “I don’t know what we’re going to do with the decision, I’m absolutely sure that I won the fight. I did much more than Gane in all the fight.
Volkov was notified of Byrd's scorecard and expressed concern for incorrect judging decisions in both boxing and MMA. While Gane won the majority of the striking exchanges, Volkov was arguably more effective on the ground and nearly finished Gane on a few occassions. “It’s kind of the weak point in all of MMA sport, maybe in boxing, too, because sometimes we’re watching the boxing, too, and see some bullshit decision, but in MMA with just three rounds—You know, we did so many in the camp and gym to promote the fight, everything, I’m feeling this just after the woman who just - I don’t know if she’s working on her skills, on her own skills to judge the fights or she just sometimes comes to watch the fights because she likes it," Volkov said.
"You got f*****," White said. "You got f***** badly. That's horrible. I don't know what we will do, but we'll try to make it right." Exactly what the UFC will do remains to be seen, but it's clear White and the team aren't happy with what transpired in Las Vegas.UFC 311 Adds Another Huge Fight, Top Lightweights Set to Clash In Los AngelesZain Bando is a writer for MMA Knockout, part of the Sports Illustrated/Minute Media umbrella.
