Ilia Topuria and Islam Makhachev They are closer to facing ever. At the moment there is nothing official, but the Russian continues to block, a priori, the opportunities of El Matador. The truth is that it can be a pressure strategy, since for the moment, it is the fight with More sense That can be done.
All the Puzzle pieces lead to confrontation, since UFC 314 in April is approaching, so that of being a topuria there would no longer have time to give the weight. In addition, he was asked about his return in the ‘Fullsend MMA’ podcast, saying that there could be news next week and who faced only mentioned lightweight names, such as champion himself, Dustin Poirier, Charles Oliveria and Justin Gaethje. In the same interview he also made it clear that I could beat Makhachev.
“I really think I can overcome the current champion, Islam Makhachev,” he said confidently. Although he made it clear that it would not be a simple fight and praised the Russian as a monarch of the division, I did not hesitate on his possibilities. «He is a great champion. You can’t be champion by chance, you have to do things well. It is a beast, but I have so many things against Islam that it will have difficulties with me», Said the featherweight champion.
Nor does it leave a pound interpretation about how the encounter would develop: «Something he knows and we all know is that all I need is a punch. You know for sure that I’m going to connect that punch Because I don’t throw my blows like crazy. I hope my moment. We all know that at some point I will give that punch and everything will depend on what God decides. If you want to sleep Islam or not. Who knows? I know it, ”he said.

Even so, it is no surprise for anyone that this is the fight that everyone who loves discipline wants to see. It should be noted that both Topuria and Makhachev have said, almost simultaneously, that there will be news soon, so in few days the speculation and secretism will end.
