Topuria didn't use a single cuss word never attacked Volk's personal life or anything like that he is only hyping the fight and marketing himself idk how u all can be so soft to get triggered for this.
Translation is poor. At 9:14, the translation is not "I'm going to open spaces that I will be able to take advantage of" The right translation is: "I will force him to open spaces and I will punch him in ways he doesn't even know is possible to punch" Saludos desde Burgos
Is it my imagination, or is this fight now one of the most anticipated in recent memory because of its immense competitive nature and the promise of off the chart skills.
It is so funny to see how people get provoced by Ilia and hate him without a reason. He is not disrespectful, he never attacked Alex personally. He keeps it to the fight.
Finally he made a decent one . He was getting too cocky and many of us ( Spanish fans) Started to dislike some of his speeches. He always respected Volk in a way where he didnt mention anything related with family, country, religion or things like that but he cross the line somehow. Still a good guy
Ilias english is still developing. That's why he repeated same things a lot to hype the fight. In spanish he is very fluid and articulate and he seems even more humble, serious and respectfull. Cocky and confident too of course but different.
Even if he looses, he won’t be embarrassed like others, he’s still exciting, still a killer and very young, but will be a good humbling experience for sure..
It’s called Manifestation and patterning. Do not be surprised if he dominates Volk. This is not delusion on Topuria’s part. The man genuinely believes he’s going to do what he says. It isn’t for clout. Whether or not he does it is another question but a man with this level of confidence is the most dangerous
Yeah and when he's getting his face punched in at warp speed reality will set in and he'll lose that "cool" This dude is not nearly as good as he tries to portray himself. Volk is going to expose him. I remember all this talk before the Yair fight too "this one is different" 🤣 Yeah okay, thanks for the free money.
Sending all the best wishes to Ilia Topuria, as well as to both Georgia and Spain! 🇬🇪❤️🇪🇸 May his journey in the UFC bring pride and joy to both nations, showcasing the incredible talent and spirit that transcends borders. Good luck to Ilia and may he continue to inspire and unite fans around the world!
This is a very composed and focused individual. A dangerous guy. Even if he loses this fight, I still see his path leading to the FW title within the next year or so 💯
One of my favorite fighters to watch. Tough , hard hitter and a phenomenal boxer. His and Leon Edwards are fighting styles I could see myself having if I were a UFC fighter. With that said I'm a big volk fan so I'm torn on this. Excited for Saturday!!!
To say volk won't be ready for a strategic approach is wild, volk and his camp are some of the best at gameplanning, he literally approaches every fight differently.
Alex, going against Islam twice is such a great preparation for this fight. I still have Alex though. I just have not seen anyone yet challenge him in his division. Outside of Max Holloway, of course.
@@FizzSix he’s not elite, but he’s a very good grappler when he wants to be. Look how he stopped Bryce Mitchell. You don’t do that, by just being a good striker. Either way who do you have?
When topuria wins nobody better change up, people fail to realize volk took this fight way too quick off of a knockout and prior to that he was probably the most active fighter in the ufc. Hes too old to fight that consistently and it’s going to show in this fight. Topuria is an all around relentless weapon.
Great Interview, if only people understood his actual words in Spanish, pretty cool dude. Only like Conor he is very respectful and classy on what he says. Translation is weak sauce, ESPN/UFC I'll translate for a low price, holla at me🤣 El nuevo campeon.
topuria doesnt get enough credit and hes a classy guy he's right ryan hall was the most ducked guy in the featherweight division, he takes a super short notice fight against a 6'1 lightweight, he almost fought masorv but masorv ended up pulling out. don't get how you can hate on him honestly he's confident and respects volk a lot but he for sure has something to prove I love volk but this could be a difficult task.
@jorrba3934 You know some of these guys their Spanish is as bad as their English Very disheartening for Native English speakers who yearn to learn Spanish
Good for him. Nothing wrong the confidence and nothing wrong with what he is doing. We all love Topuria fights, you cant deny that and if he wins he has set himself up to be a super star.
I don't see him as disrespectul, rather completely confident in his abilities, and it may come off harsh to some people but I don't really see a problem here to be honest. The translation was also not inaccurate but was said in a lighter, softer way, which is unfortunate because you want to feel what hes saying, the way he's saying it, but perhaps it's espn's preferred tone.
I’m similar to Ilia in the sense that I have Georgian parents and Georgian heritage, but a different nationality (I’m American born & raised). I look hope to see Ilia become the first Georgian UFC champ ❤️💪👊
Same here, I was watching the event and I noticed that they called him Spaniard about 6 times, but not a single time Georgian, even know they kept showing Georgian flag next to his name, I mean you can call him Spaniard he lives there and everything so that's fine, but he represents Georgia officially in UFC, so it was a bit puzzling that not even once word Georgian was mentioned, very weird.
Illia has lost his damned mind if he thinks he’s going to walk through Volk. Reminds me of Katar’s first fight after his loss to Max. Everyone doubted him on the comeback.
Ilia hasn't fought anyone that will be competing for a title and skipped the line to the title shot. This isn't good for the sport because it makes so the guys who are up and coming can study for guys like Volk without facing the killers of the division. Topuria probably has a gameplan that was tailored for him long ago to beat Volk. Will it work? Who knows until we see the fight.
I love when people say this. You absolutely *need* that level of delusion to make it big. It may seem foolish to the fans, but good luck achieving hypersuccess without the disconnect required for it.
It's not confidence,it's arrogance when you think you can walk through an all time great. Conor had the same aura when fighting Aldo but his previous wins were highly credible.
So, u r saying that if u face someone better than you, your mentality is that you are going to lose ? What a mentality of failures hidden behind humility.
I like Illia, and i think it's awesome to see Spain be represented in the UFC. However, i believe Volk is going to show this guy why he is the current UFC champion..
I don't know about spanish, but in georgian he's very well spoken, much much better than in english. So he can speak english, but he can't express himself well
If he loses saturday it doesnt mean anything...in the next 4 years hes going to be top 3 pfp, feather-lightweight champion, and one of the best fighters in ufc history, come back to this comment in 4 years
Yeah he is really doing a low risk high reward strategy by talking trash and hyping himself up. If he wins, he is an instant superstar. If he loses, he gets made fun of on twitter for two months and than comebacks, wins and people will stop the memes. Its that simple
Topuria didn't use a single cuss word never attacked Volk's personal life or anything like that he is only hyping the fight and marketing himself idk how u all can be so soft to get triggered for this.
