Now everyone got something nice to say about ilia.. hilarious! He speaks truth. And with such confidence anyone that didn’t realize that is blind. GOAT 🐐

[@Jiu-JitsuJourney257]

I gotta admit. I didn’t think he was gonna be able to pull it off. Good for him. Hope max is ok.

[@Elnea773]

Thank you 🙏

[@ZackP2139]

The way Illia fights is exactly what Conor thinks he is

[@Kirito-bm7jj]

Amazing performance but Poatan is the fighter of the years 3 Tko /3 Title fight 3/ 3 fight in this year

[@admancr2823]

Yeah, but that being said look at the guys that Poatan knocked out and then look at what Ilia has done. Topuria just knocked out arguably two featherweight GOAT's in one calendar year while also being the first guy to knock Holloway out. Ilia enters this conversation with solid arguments.

[@alansteel]

Lesser competition. Illia KOd two GOATs.

[@mojobrum7200]

nah the magnitude and of the two fighters ilia fought compared to pereira is like comparing silver to diamonds

[@bloodbath3658]
