that's assuming other fighters are good at it which most aren't. If Ilia wasn't a part of this fight this wouldn't have made waves. Holloway never talks trash in his 12 year career
This is the best the ufc has to offer right now. Feels like an old school fight. Credit to Ilia for bringing that type of energy back, and finally we get this format of interview.
Ilia speaking English and doing his best to talk trash is so endearing honestly, just about the only thing I like about him, you can’t deny that he is trying…. And his English is honestly getting much better

@@Bryan-gy3gu Speak some fluent spanish for us rq 😂
@@NotUrDJspanish georgian russian and german has absolutely no similarities, to read Georgian you even need to know other alphabet than Latin.
Wtf are you talking about 🤣🤣🤣
it takes such little effort to do these and all the fans want them as the press conferences suck now please keep doing these ufc!!
Exactly
When max is the underdog. That’s when he shines
"You can't shine in the sun"
Volkanovsky would disagree
Ilia admitting he's a fan threw off Max and the whole interview. 😂
I seen that lol
Max is gonna be the Jose Aldo now lol he’s getting flashbacks of that night
@@Bucket130weird
@@bigbig54 Conor
Volk
Dustin
What they have in common? All beat max and all were elite strikers
Hes a manipulator
Fight of the year no question
No question.
Let’s gooo
Pereira v Roundtree is a good contender for it tho
Pereira V Roundtree fight of the year. We'll see if this one lives up to that
The real fight of the year would have been Tom vs Jon’s or Connor vs chandler
Ilia with the belt is hilarious, bro learned from Chael.
16:33 not gonna lie this was such a big flex 😂 can't imagine being able to speak that many languages thatd be cool.
Why is Ilia Topuria such a goober? I love it
Goober isnt the right word. His stoic arrogance is polarizing and fresh.
@@porkerpete7722 I’m talking about him trolling and laughing at certain things Holloway says. It’s like Ilia doesn’t even take himself serious at times in a funny way.
I love Holloway and Ilia theyre both so funny
I swear, him turning heel has made this division much more enjoyable now. It's like when Mcgregor was heel. Not to that extreme extent but its up there.
@@porkerpete7722it’s just arrogance lol there’s nothing stoic about him, Pereira is stoic. I do like his arrogant trash talk though, it’s definitely selling the fight
ngl Ilia Topuria carried this trash talking exchange while Max only repeated "we'll find out October 26th"
I'm a fan of both of these dudes and always followed max but Ilia is right, his striking is on another level and casual will see the difference in Technique, Ilia is going to KO Max, I hate to say it but he will 😮
Ilia is so bad off the mic 😂 like what do you even say to him half the time max called him out right after 300 win and he’s acting like max didn’t want him 😂
They were both talking shit i dont get this take. Yea he repeated it throughout the video but its not like max didnt have ANYTHING
Max sees Topuria as a child and refused to pick on a mentally inferior kid as in not a fair fight.
@@Gattsu1986this take can’t be anymore wrong 🤣
Max:”what are you talking about you do the same drill?”
Illia:”Joe? Who’s Joe?”
hahahahahahaa
dying....😂
come on, he's trying his best
😂😂😂
damn I almost chocked when heard this, cuaght me off guard
I thought Ilia said joke 😂. Joe is even funnier.
This is gonna age and it’s going to be legendary
17 minutes of pure gold THIS is what need but this is the bare minimum which is the sad part but im grateful
When Max Holloway said spoiled child made me crack up 😅
I mean Illia worked his way up the rankings and took risk when guys like Patty Pimplett did not want to fight Illia. Illia didn’t get that Dana privilege as well.
Yeah. The guy wanted to Fight Islam, when Dariush got hurt
@@CainBens forgot all about that
Topurias 'blah blah' reply to that was exceptional, shut Max up quick
@@javierlandaverde4108 What risks do you honestly think he took?
Josh Emmett, Bryce Mitchell, Jai Herbert, Ryan Hall, Damon Jackson, and Youssef Zalal.
3 KOs and a submission win in those 6 is still impressive but realistically he didn't take any risks. He was handed a title fight against Volk who was fresh off a KO loss.
15:50 “Bring your pillow for the fireworks”😭😭 ts had me dying
im crying dawg 😭😭
Yeah it was original 6 months ago when he said it for the first time
@@Fruttmaster nah he said “make sure to wear a helmet” 6 months ago another goofy line his trash talk funny af to me
@@harrynunezzno he said the helmet thing like a month ago
@@harrynunezzA helmet 😂😭.
Ilia actually lowkey roasting Max for 15 min straight 😅
Not really illia makes himself look stupid
@@kalegallarde6369 An introvert capable of facing his fears and speaking in front of millions in a language that is not his own just because he knows it's another part of the job... I don't see how that can look stupid, he is doing what many foreign fighters cannot.
@@kalegallarde6369he really doesn’t 😂😂😂
Max speaks pidgin dawg, having to speak haole is hard too 😂@@Seisgea
"hey max im a fan and i followed your career but now its trashtalk time 😈"
Biggest main event of the year !!
Best fight that can be made for sure.
This is only get bigger now!!!
Merab was the biggest
Khamzat vs Whittaker
@@EssenceNPower two of the best fights of the year on the same card
Bro Holloway has 7 defeats but look at the people he has fought Connor, Dustin, Justin, Oliveria, Volka.... dude has foguht monsters
Volk beat him 3 time but max is a warrior
On paper he beat him 3 times
Yeah, his rec is still insanely good.
@@curtisgranderson3758true Max up 2-1 on tape
A lot of people say sh like this but in reality they do take their opponent very seriously, but I think in this case illia is serious and he doesn’t understand how good max is, he’s focusing too much on statistics and ignoring the context
7:59
"Max said he's the best boxer in UFC"
"That's a shame, don't say that again"
😂
Never understood fans saying he’s the best boxer. U can’t be the best boxer while holding the UFC record for most absorbed strikes lol
@@kI-cq5xqnot best boxer but one of the best strikers
@@kI-cq5xq In his fight with Calvin Kattar he said he's the best boxer in the UFC while looking away and has got the most strikes landed in UFC history. The fans have got enough reason to call him the best boxer.
Why did he get outboxed by dustin and volk@@sigmaenergy1143
Based
“Show up and I’m going to do the rest” 😂😂😂
Damn “maybe on October 26 you will become a fan” Max was shook after that one. It was a good one
Um no he was thinking how dumb that was 😂
@@Themilkman95how was that dumb? Max didn't even say anything smart but that cringy churro line 🤦🏻♂️
@@Themilkman95 no he was lost for words
No … he’s really more pissed like Nate was before McGreggor
Ilia didn’t say shit
Bruh said “im weird and you’re normal? Mamamia” 😂😂 13:01
XD
😂😂😂😂😂😂
This one killed me.
😂😂😂 bro this guy so funny even if it’s not his native language
😂
God: "why are you here?"
Max: "I guess I found out October 26th"
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Man I’m cheering for Max but you got me with this one 😂
@@rob3231 bro im cheering for max too 😂
Someone please tell me what's happening on October 26th
16:31 i love that he pointed that out..they mock other people for speaking bad english..but they dont know any other language beside english…
Sounds like 2 brothers arguing 😂
100%
Topuria looks like he works at a booth at the mall selling cologne
well groomed
LMAO
Damn that's spot on
Oddly reminds me of an Australian mall in particular 😂😂😂
“Max what’s your strategy going into this fight?”
Max “will see on Oct 26”
“Max u didn’t answer the question”
Max “going to find out oct 26”
Reporters :Max you have herpes ??
Max : We gonna find Oct 26
This is the promotion the UFC needs more of. This video has over 1m views across the ufc and espn channel. More than any of the embedded videos would get.
16:31
Max: Speak, bro.
Ilia: "Im speaking in your language, let's talk in spanish, let's talk in georgian, let's in talk russian, let's talk in genrman...
- *Max shuts his mouth*
One language, only one skillset
that's funnier when you remember that Max struggle to even speak 1 language
Omg Illy Tops can speak multiple languages? Welp yep he wins hands down then. He got Max there, whoa it’s all over.
lol typical European Chad vs American Sped.
@@buddycider3670 well he does have better boxing fundamentals, power, grappling, and Max only has better chin and reach
Interviewer: How do you feel about…
Ilia: Huge fan.
Max: October 26th.
hahaha so true
LOL
😂😂😂 brooo
u get tired, illia: me? i get tired of knock ppl out LOOOL
😂😂
😂😂😂max is getting smooooked
@@DavidGonzalez-oo2cwhe’s gonna seriously put mustard on max. It’s gonna be a sad KO
LOL

I guess we found out. And Still! 16-0
