I agree brother , it’s just we are witnessing him fighting different kind of fighters with their own style which ilia just adapts well too & finds their chin. that was the big thing was the “ style makes fights “ because people though max would’ve won with his length and my god ilia just showed that he can get passed that ✊🏻
Topuria is simply the best fighter in UFC. He is one of the few guys who does what he says will do. Some people hate him only because he destroyed two GOATs in just one year.
0:15 dude said Max was in complete control of the fight, Ilia was up 2-0 on two judges score wards, Ilia needed one more round on both those score cards & Max would have needed a finish & good luck finishing Ilia with as defensively sound as he is.
@@arunabhsrivastava7841 max won few point only bc TOPURIA was focus only on KOing him out otherwise Topuria has so many tools to just end the fight in first round...nonetheless max did what he could but KO was inevitable for him.
@@arunabhsrivastava7841 they where close & I gave round #1 to Max & round #2 to Ilia but thought Max might’ve been up 2-0 tbh, I was worried watching live when Max started landing those stomping oblique kicks & we reached round #3 and Ilia still didn’t finish Max just yet. I did pick Ilia by round 3 KO/TKO, I was surprised I was right watching it live bc Max was looking like Max. But regardless it was a close ass fight. I looked the stats up After & two judges did have it 2-0 Ilia so dude saying Max was in complete control lol nah it was definitely a great fight while it lasted, nobody was really in control, Ilia just finally landed the shot he stayed looking for, the over hand over Max’s jab
@@JSAVAGE925 Ilia got 2 TDs in round 1 easily 1-0 for Ilia there. Also Ilia was connecting better leg kicks than Max and having a more dominant position while Max only poked and tried to evade.
Ilia raised Georgian flag 🇬🇪 above the octagon and im grateful for that! Wish him all the best as he is the best and when he says he will submit Islam, he will submit Islam, no one thought that he or anyone could knock out Max, until Georgian bull went in there, so after the Alex defense, next mark is a rear choke for Islam! No one has been that perfectly balanced since GSP, no one!!!! God bless Ilia and god bless Georgia 🇬🇪
At 145, nobody. At 155, probably Islam. I only see him losing the 145 belt to injuries or Father Time, whoever catches him first. Unless someone even better and badder comes around, and if there's someone out there who can somehow out-Topuria Topuria himself, God saves us all
That's the joke. He actually is. If you see his record, you would notice he had a single KO before his UFC debut but had 7 subs. He still has more subs than KOs. Which goes to show how quickly he developed his boxing (and that's scary) and how we shouldn't sleep on his ground game Probably what you meant is, Ilia is not a crotch sniffer. Because there is a difference between grapplers and crotch sniffers: grapplers go for finishes and wins, crotch sniffers go for lay and pray.
black belt jiu jitsu with 25 ... submitted Mitchell on ground even the reporter said when they saw Ilia kept fighting him on the ground , it was a mistake of him to try to fight Bryce on the floor and he would regret it ---------------. And... serveral instant later ... WOW insane .... but .... sure ...Islam on the ground is in my opi much much harder.
I know you didn’t ask for my opinion but I watched some of his interviews in Spanish, the guy has a good personality, what stands out the most to me is his mentality it’s elite
He's a villian not a hero thats why u dont like his personality..and to be honest ppl these days likes villian more..sick of boring heroes.ilia brings hype to the fights and that's what UFC needs right now.
His trash talk consists of saying that he knows he is better than his opponents and that he will beat them. He never gets personal with them and shows respect to the defeated, watch some of his interviews in Spanish (there are some translated into English). There is not a hint of villainy in that guy, a lot of confidence for sure, but how bad are we if confidence in yourself makes you a villain.
For me, what is really scary about illia is that he looks better in each fight. Faster, stronger and smarter
And this is just the beginning ☝🏻🌹

💯💯💯
Man is truly on another level, I thought Volk was the pinnacle of what a 145er could look like then Ilia comes along and makes it look easy at 27
Topuria is simply the best fighter in UFC.
He is one of the few guys who does what he says will do.
Some people hate him only because he destroyed two GOATs in just one year.
True bro
True, but to Say that is in Jones level is madness.... The time Will tell...
idk about the best fighteer. he.s not even the best boxer. yanez has the crispest hands by far.
No man, Ilia is a hell of a fighter and sure he is a good guy but his impersonation of Mcgregor has been annoying... and im spanish
@@chrispee5786 you should not be talking about boxing if you think yanez has crispy hands

I think he's a layman, doesn't know much about fight, to be fair though Ilia was up by two rounds but both the rounds were close, I gave 2nd to max
Exactly..

Max in control? By the end of the 2nd his lead leg was destroyed n his chin already tested. Denial.
The commentary was a bit biased towards Max, I think that's why many people have the picture of this fight distorted.

Paddy the baddy :D :D :D

@@KiddeeKushBAP BAP BAP, SLAP THE BLEEDIN NOWSE OFF 'IM YEAH
Guys this is nothing new in spain it was just a matter of time
We want to aee him fight Paddy
At least he's not a ground fighter
The best about him is that he is elite in the ground too
That's the joke. He actually is.

He grew up in grecorroman fighting, which is a grappling, ground fightstyle. It could be argued that the BEST part of his game is the ground😂
