Probably the salt lake city card in october 307. Abu dhabi card obviously Islam since Khamzat pulled out Msg card is for the retired jones miocic unfortunately

[@SW.Rob0578]

Ortega by submission round 3

[@Man_Ray78]

If that's happening, it's because Topuria is being forced to let down some of his bogus demands. Nobody meets his pipe-dreaming standards and Ortega and Volk would never get a chance. If Topuria had it his way, he would only do double champ fights, money fights with washed up stars like McGregor or exhibition boxing against some 50-year-old legends. How he has acted is so anoying.

[@IamBruceC]

I think it get's announced soon that Max vs Ilia will be the main event at UFC 306 at the Sphere in Vegas.

“Just yes or no, how familiar are you with Diego Lopez’s game” 🤔

I had a hunch he might not be familiar, so wanted to gauge his knowledge before framing the next question. Also low on time so wanted to avoid a drawn out response before I knew where we were headed :)

Wasnt the story about a phoenix not an eagle?

Maybe he's talked about both, but the one I'm referring to is a myth about how older eagles break their dull beaks and pluck out their feathers to grow new ones

Max is one of my all time favourites, but Topuria is also on that trajectory. I dont think there is anybody right now who can beat Ilia at FW. He is a legend in the making and people will realize sooner or later.

I really hope Max get it done against Topuria. Topuria is just an annoying champ. Dont want to fight contenders, go around europe promoting himself and spew bullshits. In Volk and Max, FW had real champions. Unfortunately, Volk was compromised due to Makhachev's kick, if not Topuria would never be the champ.

[@bruce384]

If he is going to fight Max isnt a bit contradictory that you said that he doesnt want to fight contenders?

[@MNomad90]

@@bruce384 New to the ufc bro? Topuria openly said he doesnt want to fight Max and other FW contenders but ufc will definitely force him to defend the belt or strip him of it. Him fighting Max voluntarily vs him being forced to fight Max is a big difference. Capiche?
