      I've gotta give credit where its due. Tupuria came across well in that interview. I thought he was an arrogant bastard. But he seemed quite a good dude in that interview. Love the wine thing and definitely take him up on his offer in Spain mate! Spanish food is fuckin amazing!

      why does no one use the calf kick against topuria - he's so heavy on that front leg? Volk also has length in his arms . . . keep the fight long, stay away from those hooks and upper cuts. work the legs and take him into the later rounds - volk can go jab for jab and win that battle take the decision.

He doesnt mention family, religion, kids, but Im telling you spanish trashtalk is on another level even cruel if you take it seriously you are lost.

      I don’t know much about Topuria, haven’t watched any of his fights. I have only seen videos of him, that make him seem arrogant & smug, but after watching this interview, it seems as though its a part act, part real, but he actually seems like a good bloke. As an Aussie, I’m praying Volk wins, but I can see these two having a good rivalry, similar to Volk/Max.

    Back in the '80s, my dad was a bodybuilder and he also drank some wine the day before the show. Made him sleep well and dehydrate during the night. Ofcourse, he didn't have to fight for life and death the next day... he just needed to pose.
    So the wine part makes sense for me.
