Epic Crossover: Alexander Volkanovski Submits NFL Giant Jordan Mailata

UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski stepped inside the cage at Absolute Mixed Martial Arts for a wild, viral YouTube collaboration with fellow Australian star and Philadelphia Eagles offensive lineman Jordan Mailata. Despite a massive 240-pound weight difference, the elite mixed martial artist put on a tactical and highly entertaining showcase.

The two superstars shared a very friendly interaction filled with laughter while testing each other's athletic limits. They wrestled at the cage wall lightheartedly, but the intensity spiked when Mailata wanted to see if he could handle the UFC fighter's full power. Volkanovski delivered a brutal body shot that instantly dropped the 6-foot-8 NFL giant to his knees.

The fun continued with a grappling match where Mailata used his rugby and football defense to block Volkanovski's movements. Despite Mailata physically lifting him clean into the air, "Volk" seamlessly secured a submission choke, forcing the gigantic lineman to tap out.

The meeting ended with a football game where Volkanovski wore pads to try and rush past Mailata. The giant lineman easily blocked him at first using his elite NFL skills. However, Volkanovski pulled off one last trick to win. In a hilarious moment, "Volk" literally ran up the cage wall to jump completely around Mailata. Both stars burst into massive laughter at the crazy move, ending an unforgettable crossover event.
