Kinda scary watching these when you realize that its hard to decide if Ilia is best on his feet or on the ground.

I'm still not sold on Topuria. I'm getting Cody Garbrandt vibes from when Cody won the belt.

If I see him win 4-5 championship fights knocking people out, then maybe I'll believe he's more like Anderson Silva. But until proven otherwise, he's another flash in the pan.

the guy scores a 50-42 against emmet which is just insane in a number 1 contenders fight, then KO's volk and Max back to back while being undefeated in the UFC and In MMA

and you need more?

To seek bigger challenges that is.

It's a valid comparison. Cody looked unbeatable until he got matched up with Dillashaw's juiced up ass. We've seen him look pretty human in three of his last four fights. They look good on paper and had nasty finishes, but he is far from a can or an indestructible juggernaut.

 

[TriangleMonkey]

Another solid case where a great ground-fighter works so hard to the point his stand-up actually surpasses his ground-attack


He’s fun to watch fight I know that much

Islam broke the LW title defense record while Topuria dipped after one measly defense to avoid Movsar lol

 

[Last Falconry]

honest question, how many cody garbrandts would it take to beat ilia in a fight? I say at least 3

Bro if you call out Islam and want to fight him, you're not ducking Movsar. You're trying to level up and increase your competition.

Even further, he only just turned 28. He's probably at least a couple years away from his peak.

everyone's invincible until they're not. i remember the threads during the conor worship heyday when guys were scientifically proving that conor could not be beat, ever.

You don't knock out volk and max back to back by being a flash in the pan

I'm sold on him at FW. I'm not sold on him at LW. Islam is a big LW. Topuria will always have a punchers chance since he has dynamite in his hands but I don't think LW is the right division for him.
