My respect for Topuria has increased tremendously

[octagonation]

Him and Islam will definitely share an octagon around October-December this year. He will have his own El-Classico!

He should fight Charles for a tune-up fight or even Dustin then immediately give him the TS. I would even say give him Dustin in April or May.

I respect him for going for that fight instead of avoiding Islam and keep his zero he is willing to put it on the line against someone like Islam Makhachev. It is all about the competition and I love competitive fights and fighters seeking out competitive fights. Hala Madrid.

I am all about big fights and great fights!

He could lose to Dustin and you may never see that fight against Islam, you never really know in this sport, there is a lot of luck involved.

He's pulling a Conor and ducking top FW contenders to go pursue a LW title. I say let Nate Diaz choke him out

 

[AmericanMMA]

Hand sanitizer boy ducked the rematch that would have proven his title win was an all time fluke win

 

[markg171]

I respect him for taking on a top LW unlike Islam

Ilia vs Arman

whilst Islam sits on the throne -- looking down upon the violence

 

[octagonation]

Ilia vs Arman

No. We want Ilia vs Makhachev as a sho in guraantee because Arman can ruin the party

I want Ilia and Arman to tenderize and humble each other in a worthy cause to get to Islam.

Ilia doesn't deserve an immediate Title Shot and Arman is still Top Contender.

What rematch? Who the fuck deserves a rematch? Volk? lol fucking hell. Huge fan of Volk but stupid. STUPID

 

[JBGuy420]

How do you know he definitely will?

Ilia vs Arman

Arman doesn't deserve Ilia. Not after what he pulled.

 

[Neck&Neck]

I think he smokes Dustin or Olives
I don’t really care if he gets a TS straight away or not
I just want to see the top guys in the UFC fight regularly

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

This is just the beginning of a historic run that will end with Ilia being an undefeated 3-weight champion.

 

[Cobra 03]

I would give Topuria immediate LW title shot. That's one of the biggest fights the UFC could make, why take a chance of screwing it up with a tune-up fight?

Wrong. Conor never had a title defense.

"tune up" Lol Tsarukyan & Oliveira are not tune ups for Topuria.

He knocked out Volk and Holloway with ease and would be favored to win over anyone at FW. Insinuating he's afraid of "top contenders" is a stretch. He's just looking for a big money fight and double champ status.

what? Who hasn't he fought at LW?

 

[LeBron]

I agree. Plus he’s moving up to fight a super elite champ. Conor moved up to fight a fraud in Alvarez.

 

[flowoftruth]

he should have fought movsar before going up because that was his last big test in the division

 

[markg171]

Brother his last 4 fights have been Moicano Dustin and Volk 2x

Do you live in that bath tub of something
