Hot Take Topuria back to talking S***

[kingmob6]

UFC champion Ilia Topuria stated that Islam Makhachev refused to fight him.

Everyone wants to see our fight. But for some reason, Islam didn't agree to it, and then he talked too much. It's very easy to talk from thousands of kilometers away, criticizing me, but when you step into the octagon with me, you'll understand that I'm not Jack Della Maddalena or Dan Hooker. "I'm completely different, and when you feel my right hand, you'll understand that a very long sleep awaits you," Topuria said.
I believe fighting is my strength. But I recently realized that's not what the audience wants. However, in the case of Islam, perhaps that's exactly what they need. I want to dominate in the stand-up, land three or four strikes in the right places, and then defeat him with a submission in front of Khabib [Nurmagomedov]. And if he wants to go for the legs, I'll gladly step on his head.

They [Makhachev and Khabib] are so cocky and arrogant, "If Khabib wants to get involved, I'll gladly step on his head too," Topuria said.

Ilia can't keep it together going through a divorce. Get your shit straight and then come back and compete until then it's all bark on the inside looking outside.

Beat Arman first and I'll believe lil Topturo

Sign a contract to defend at LW. Or, vacate and move up to fight a contender.

Otherwise I don’t care what he says. Especially since he’s accusing Islam of ducking him the same way he’s ducked at FW, and now at LW.

Fight or shut up.

Mind not posting this short fella here? I like watching real normal sized men fighting in bloody battles, not some children sized "fighters" spamming hooks and knocking out other children

This guy tries to Conor without the Cocaine.

Ilia retired because of a divorce, it just seems really soft. Hes not really in a position to talk shit right now.

 

[Rhood]

Is this video new?
What the hell is wrong with this guy?

First he needs to take a break from the sport because the divorce made him too emotional.
Then he gets emotional over Islam again.
He really seems emotionally fragile. Imagine what would happen to his career after a loss.
Now everyone knows why he desperately needs to hand-pick his opponents or else he'll lose and go down the drain.

Ilia can't keep it together going through a divorce. Get your shit straight and then come back and compete until then it's all bark on the inside looking outside.

And he should vacate his title.

If he's going to be active and defend his belt, he can talk all the shit he wants. But if he's going through a difficult divorce and needs time, I understand that sucks but he needs to vacate.

 

[CatchtheseHands]

Worst champ we've had in sometime. Dude barely fights and refuses to vacate despite it being the best for everyone if he did. Shit even Jamahal Hill vacated when he tore his Achilles. The only champ who comes close or is just as bad is Khamzat who also talks a lot of shit while only fighting once a year.

 

[Dionysian]

Concentrate on the divorce.

If you are not fighting, don't talk about fighting.
If you are not fighting, ESPECIALLY don't be talking shit about fighting. Shutup.

Islam should reply that he heard Ilya's wife felt that right hand and it wasn't that big a deal.

Ilia Topuria threatens Khabib Nurmagomedov in latest message to Islam Makhachev and team

Topuria has threatened to step on Khabib.

“I consider my strong point to be on the ground, but lately I’ve accepted that it is not what the public wants to see, although with Islam perhaps it is something that the public wants to see,” Topuria told Eldo Berdan MMA.

“To dominate him standing up, to give him three or four punches in the spot where I have to hit him, and then to submit him in front of Khabib and if he wants to pass, I’ll gladly step on his head too,” he continued.

 

[dog y]

Do it.

 

[LeBron]

This guy is one of the worst champions in recent memory. He had plenty of time to defend but chose to do jack shit and then take a leave of absence.

 

[FrappeDuRocma]

Can't even defeat his wife...

 

[hbombbisping]

Well at least he's talking about fighting and not his bitch ex wife but he sounds deluded.

Islam will throw him out of the cage.
