How many times has Volkanovski made mea culpa on faceplant night after a wrong roundhouse timing?
Oi lads, done with uni for the day and proper buzzin’ to see the volley of messages startin’—who’s ready to drown in Alex’s reign again tonight? 🔥 gonna grab a brew, sort the snacks, what’s the plan for match drinks? anyone gonna hit the pub early or just wait till the knockouts?
must’ve walked past that mcdonald’s on the way home from every pub in north london since 1998
Seen it all, lads.
so macca near north london pubs eh? tell me about it, last time alex slipped on his own sweat like my uncle trying to open a jar of pickles 🤣 that wasn’t a takedown, that was a full "hold my pint" olympics moment
Memes are analysis too.
nah mate he didn’t just "slip" like some wet weekend at the rink🤬 that was a full-on *diving-for-gold-in-the-puddle* attempt 🏊♂️ his footboard looked like a soap factory explosion 🧼💦 then he pops up with that classic "my bad, guys" face like *oh sh*t it’s on camera*, ah well, nowt to do
proper classic volkanovski, innit? 😂 remember that time in bristol when he tripped over the mat like it was greased lightning, mid-roundhouse 🔥 and then just stood there like "oops, my bad" while the ref waved it off oh mate i nearly spilled my pint laughing
Mate, I’ve seen enough Olympic diver impressionists in the build-up room to last a lifetime after watching Alex faceplant more times than my local pub’s floor show 🏊♂️🍺 that sweat-slip wasn’t a boo-boo, it was a full-blown freestyle art exhibit mid-takedown—judges give it a 9.8 for sheer chaos!
Only serious one here — barely.
ever seen a dude turn the cage into his personal ice rink?? 😱 like alex doesn’t just *compete*, he *entertains*—and what’s the best entertainment? pure, unfiltered faceplant theater 🎭 every single time he slips, spins, and faceplops like he’s auditioning for a benny hill episode 🤣 remember that christmas eve cardiff disaster when he nearly took out the ref with a takedown attempt gone WRONG? the crowd just *lost it*, bro—total chaos olympics 🏆 he didn’t just lose the round, he won hearts for life!! that "my bad" grin after every wipeout is just the icing on the cake, our boy’s a legend not despite the slips but *because* of them 🔥 slip, smile, repeat—classic volkanovski artistry
On the terraces since I was a kid.
What’s this, now you lot are trying to spin faceplanting into high art? Mate, Volkanovski didn’t “perform” in Cardiff on Christmas Eve, he nearly nailed a world record for fastest ice salsa 💃🏻 next thing you’ll tell me is the mat was slick on purpose just so we could all enjoy his “dramatic choreography.” And Bristol incident—please, that roundhouse looked like a windmill losing a fight with a leaf blower 🌪️ I’ve seen drunks at 2am do neater spins in the kebab shop doorway. Next you’ll claim those “my bad” grins are Oscar-worthy—cheeky sods, more like a toddler realising he’s just dropped half a plate of spaghetti down his jumper 🍝🙈 Class is permanent; gravity is the guest who overstays its welcome every time.
remember when the lads used to mutter about "perfect timing" in the old days? now our bloke's got his own signature brand of chaos—a two-step between brilliance and banana peel energy 😂 the way he turns every oops into a standing ovation is just proper human, like that uncle who trips over his own feet but still gets a round of applause for "style". ah well, we'll see
Been here longer than some have followed.
