Volkov immediately taken down after a fake flying kick attempt. Not a good start for Volkov. #UFCLondon

Well that was quick… having @FabricioWerdum on top of you is never fun.

On the ground already with @FabricioWerdum on top… big problem

Werdum grabbing Volkov's throat to hold him in place while he's landing ground strikes is illegal, nasty, and effective. #UFCLondon

Werdum claims to have the mind of a 28yr old? It’s like saying he has a dozen years less knowledge than he should. #ThugjitsuThoughts??

It's the end of the first round between Volkov & Werdum. They both look spent. This should be fun.

Rafael Cordeiro asks Fabricio Werdum to get back to his gameplan. "Don't do that anymore because it was bad," Cordeiro said.

Wedrum looking a little softer in the middle than usual, and seems to be breathing heavy already. #UFCLondon

Volkov gives up another takedown, showing why he’s so tentative on the feet.

Working elbows into Werdum’s eye aka Bisping-GSP wouldn’t hurt…

Werdum's halfguard passing/sub threats and the interplay between them is pretty amazing even when he's fighting like a weirdo.

Fabricio Werdum regularly pointing at the canvas, like his opponent is about to step off a curb and twist his ankle, never gets old.

Fabricio Werdum's right eye is an absolute mess.

— Shaheen Al-Shatti (@shaunalshatti) March 17, 2018

That back take from Werdum was absolutely ridiculous. My God.

— Guilherme Cruz (@guicruzzz) March 17, 2018

This is beginning to give me flashbacks to Werdum’s bout with Overeem in Strikeforce. #UFCLondon

The heavyweight division in the @ufc is ??

I dread heavyweight fights when no one is getting knocked out ??????

I kinda want the taller Ivan Drago guy to get a finish in these last 2 rounds ????????????????????? #UFCLondon

— Megan Anderson (@MeganA_mma) March 17, 2018

THAT. IS. IT.@AlexDragoVolkov gets the biggest win of his career at #UFCLondon! He stops Werdum in round 4! pic.twitter.com/YMSFE7udiq

Alexander Volkov knocks Fabricio Werdum out in the fourth round. Weathered Werdum's early wrestling, Werdum lost the bounce in his step, Volkov didn't fall into his mind games, beat him on the feet. Strong performance.

— Brett Okamoto (@bokamotoESPN) March 17, 2018

Alex Volkov, Curtis Blaydes, Tai Tuivasa – the next generation of UFC heavyweights have arrived.

Alexander Volkov now has the second longest active UFC win streak in the heavyweight division at 4 (Miocic, 6). #UFCLondon
