Both prospects (Hall, not so much - he is 36) and are undefeated thus far in the UFC.
Ilia Topuria (10-0) vs. Ryan Hall (8-1)
Hall's last fight (vs. BJ Penn):
Ilia Topuria's last fight (vs. Damon Jackson):
Hall is one dimensional, but elite at what he does, but his wrestling isn't good - his best way of getting to a grappling scenario is by pulling guard, and Topuria has really heavy hands; is a really solid boxer; good footwork; great wrestler and has a promising future.
However, this is a strange fight, Hall probably won't go far, but can give problems to most of the lower ranked featherweights; I really think Topuria will crush him and get some early/prolonged knockout. Hall's only way to grapple is to pull guard and will most likely get chewed up should he try and strike.
Thoughts?
