Vologdin explains low hand position in UFC debut third round

Mark Vologdin discussed his emotions from his UFC debut and addressed questions about his technique in the third round. When asked why he kept his hands very low in the third round and absorbed many strikes despite corner warnings, Vologdin said he was fighting on instinct. He admitted that even when his opponent landed, he kept thinking the shots would not drop him even with his hands down, acknowledging this was foolish. Vologdin said people can criticize him for leaving his health on the line or say it was not top-level technique, but he does not care because he chose this path and genuinely enjoyed the experience.
