Islam Makhachev's adjustments to KO Volkanovski

Sound on if you like AI text-to-speech (I'm looking to purchase a mic soon!).

Even though Volkanovski stepped up on short notice to rematch Makhachev, both of them showed that they had learned plenty about how to adjust their approach for the rematch.

The directionality of the fight was completely different, with Volkanovski more content to take the backfoot and Makhachev looking to come forward.

Ultimately we didn't get to see these adjustments play out over five rounds because Makhachev was keen to exploit Volkanovski's career weakness to southpaw kickers.
