Ilia Topuria is the great star of the MMA in Spain. The fighter became the first Spanish champion in the UFC by defeating Alexander Volkanovski last February in the fight for the featherweight belt. The Hispanic-Georgian, who will play for the title this Saturday against Max Holloway at UFC 308, is at the peak of his sporting career, but his private life is still somewhat unknown, although it is well known that he shares his life with his partner, Giorgina Uzcategui.
Uzcategui, who has 221 thousand followers on Instagram, is businesswoman and entrepreneur. She is currently the CEO of Future & Energy, a renewable energy company operating in the United States. Additionally, Giorgina studied Business Administration at the Miami Dade College and, later, he expanded his training in this field at Suffolk University in Boston.
As the fighter tells in a UFC documentary, the couple met during a dinner and for him, Giorgina is “one of the best gifts that God brought me.” They currently reside in Alicante and regularly share images of them together.
And not only images, but also messages of affection and reciprocal love. In fact, last July the couple welcomed her first daughter in commonGiorgina, the second for the fighter, who has another son from a previous relationship. “There are no words that can describe this moment. Thank you, God, therefore,” Topuria wrote on her social networks, along with an image with the little girl and the mother after giving birth.
Giorgina—who before meeting El Matador was not an MMA fan—is now a unconditional support for him and she has no doubt that her boyfriend will become world champion.
The fighter, current featherweight champion in the UFC, he made history by becoming the first Spaniard to win a UFC belt. Topuria remains undefeated with 15 wins after knocking out one of the best fighters in UFC history, a Volkanovski who had been champion since December 2019.
