Taking Volkmann…not sure why.

Not that I condone facism or any ism for that matter. Isms are in my opinion, not good. A person shouldn't believe in an ism, he should believe in himself.

I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me". Good point there, after all he was the walrus. I could be the walrus. Wouldn't change the fact I have to bum rides off of people.

I’d pick Volkmann by sub easy if Kelly was coming from Rough House (0-9 vs american wrestlers), but Wolfslair actually seems to have some wrestling competency so…

How does Christmas get so many fights? This will make 4 in 8.5 months, when most guys are lucky if they can get 3 a year.

first, he was game enough to come in and fight his first 2 fights against Paulo Thiago and Matrin Kampmann.

byond that: he hasn’t gotten injured at all, he comes from a camp the UFC loves, and isn’t ranked so high that there’s a limited amount of guys who are legit opponents for him, while being respectable enough that you can legitimately match him against all but top contenders.
