Australian Tai Tuivasa does not correspond to the UFC level, there are no skills in his arsenal, light heavyweight and heavyweight champion Anatoly Malykhin told .
Russian heavyweight Alexander Volkov defeated Tuivasa in the second round of the UFC 293 co-main event with a move called the Ezekiel Choke. Alexey Oleynik won twice in the UFC with this rare move.
— Congratulations to Volkov on his victory, I had no doubt about this result. I just look at Tuivasa’s skills… A lot of people say, “UFC is one level, they have the best fighters in the world.” I look at Tuivasa and many other fighters in the league and I don’t understand. It’s not a level. The guy doesn’t know how to wrestle, he has no functional training. He has random hits he can catch. Otherwise, he can’t do anything. He doesn’t know how to get up from the ground, he stays there like a log. I looked at his skills and just wanted to cry,” Malykhin told .
Volkov, 34, has 37 victories in MMA with ten defeats. The Russian heavyweight is now on a three-fight winning streak in the UFC. Tuivasa, 30, suffered his third straight loss in the UFC.
