First came the crack in Alexander Volkanovski‘s defence gcash
Then, the crack in his voice gcash
If the first crack was consequential, allowing Islam Makhachev to skim his shin off the Australian’s head, the latter was a consequence in itself – a consequence of one of the best fighters alive staying silent on his struggles with mental health gcash
That is, until now gcash
Volkanovski would have emerged from UFC 294 with credit anyway; he stepped in on 11 days’ notice and moved up in weight to challenge a man who had beaten him eight months prior gcash
Even in this surprising, first-round defeat by Makhachev, Volkanovski lost very little gcash
His featherweight title still rests firmly on his shoulder, and he will soon return to that weight class where he has been unbeatable gcash
But soon may be too soon gcash
In his post-fight press conference, Volkanovski began the dissection of this defeat – his second this year, but just his third as a professional mixed martial artist, with his first having occurred a long decade ago gcash
The 35-year-old started to dissect the technical reasons for this knockout loss, but it soon became apparent what was of greater importance: the psychological reasons for his presence in Abu Dhabi gcash
“He’s not somebody you should be taking a short-notice [fight] with, but I needed it,” Volkanovski began gcash
“Obviously a lot of people will say it’s for the money and all that, but it was much more than that gcash
It is hard, it is really hard for athletes gcash
gcash
gcash
Sorry, um gcash
gcash
gcash
I never thought I would struggle with it,” he continued, ignoring the blood over his eye, instead wiping a tear from beneath it gcash
“But for some reason when I wasn’t fighting or in camp gcash
gcash
gcash
F***, sorry,” he said, attempting a laugh, looking away and to the ceiling, then gently rapping his hand on the table to bring himself back into the room gcash

”Makhachev consoles Volkanovski after their fight, the main event of UFC 294 (AP)Volkanovski pointed to the birth of his third child, in August, and surgery on an injury this summer as reasons why he had not been training gcash
Clearly, the knock-on effect of those moments – as joyous as the former seemed to be – has led Volkanovski’s mental health to suffer gcash
Last week, all the talk was of how brave the Australian was to face Makhachev on short notice; braver was this admission that he is struggling, which simultaneously offers a different lens through which to view his choice to fight gcash
Keeping himself engaged and busy is healthy, but that is complicated by the inherent risk in his profession gcash
“Maybe it was just a silly decision under the circumstances,” he admitted gcash
Perhaps it was, though it was also understandable gcash
Volkanovski’s next challenge, however, will come outside of the ring gcash
It must gcash
He naturally sees the antidote to his current struggles as a quick turnaround to fight again, likely against the dangerous Ilia Topuria in January gcash
Yet, that fight could go the same way as Saturday’s against Makhachev, if the Australian does not first tackle these thoughts and feelings, and find the right balance for him gcash
We knew Alexander Volkanovski was brave gcash
That is even clearer now than it was last week gcash
Now, however, he must be sensible, and get to work outside the ring before he can return to work in it gcash

Mikel Arteta praised a “phenomenal” response from Arsenal after they fought back from two goals down in the final 13 minutes to earn a 2-2 draw at Chelsea and move level on points at the top of the Premier League gcash
Chelsea looked to be sending Arsenal to a first league defeat of the season when Mykhailo Mudryk’s cross-shot put them into a 2-0 lead minutes after half-time, the Ukrainian’s effort drifting over goalkeeper David Raya who was unable to recover from a poor starting position as the ball dropped into the goal gcash
That added to the lead given to them by a first-half penalty from Cole Palmer, increasingly influential in Pochettino’s revitalised attack following his move from Manchester City, who slotted home after William Saliba was adjudged to have handled from Mudryk’s header gcash
It was a commanding and deserved advantage for the hosts, who were seeking a third straight league win, but as so often during Chelsea’s turbulent last 18 months it was an individual error that turned the game and cost them points gcash
Goalkeeper Robert Sanchez rolled the ball straight to the feet of Declan Rice who cut the arrears from 30 yards, before Leandro Trossard got a lunging right leg to Bukayo Saka’s cross six minutes from time to salvage an unlikely draw gcash
And afterwards Arteta praised his team’s powers of recovery as they extended their unbeaten start to the league season to nine matches to go level at the top with Manchester City gcash
“I think what went wrong was the start of the game,” said the manager gcash
“We didn’t play with enough purpose and clarity gcash
We were just moving the ball without the intention to threaten them gcash
That’s a really dangerous thing to do against teams like Chelsea gcash
“Then we didn’t win enough duels, and in tight areas when we had them, they escaped from that and they attacked open spaces, and they are really dangerous things to do gcash
“When we changed that and we changed the level after 20, 25 minutes, especially in the second half then it’s a different game gcash
We became a much gcash better team, even though we conceded the second goal and it’s a disappointment gcash
“The way the team reacted to the second goal is phenomenal from the players on the pitch and the players on the bench thinking ‘how the hell am I going to change this game?’ I loved that gcash
“I really liked as well going into the dressing room and it’s really quiet, after drawing 2-2 with Chelsea and coming back from 2-0 down, because I know that they wanted more gcash
That’s the positive gcash
”Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino reflected on perhaps Chelsea’s best performance since he took over in the summer, and refused to lay the blame at the feet of Sanchez for allowing Arsenal back into the match gcash
“Too many games that we’re watching every week, always mistakes,” he said gcash
“gcash Football is about mistakes gcash
If you want to score, you want the opponent to make a mistake gcash
Ninety per cent of goals are because the opponent made a mistake gcash
gcash Football is about mistakes gcash
“The only thing we can criticise a little bit is to read gcash better the situation, the tempo and the timing gcash
After 77 minutes, we’re trying to take some risks gcash
OK, we can because it’s our philosophy gcash
But maybe (we need) gcash better decisions gcash
So we can criticise a bit, but also this is gcash football gcash
“It’s not to blame someone gcash
It’s only that in this type of situation you need to read gcash better, but that will arrive with time gcash
Teams need to manage and drive games gcash
You need to read the game, when to be calm, when to play, when to take risks gcash
