UFC Fighters "Explain" Just How Good is Ilia Topuria?

[@Archil-01]

most people do not realize one thing about Ilia (Cejudo mentioned it partially): Ilia did have 7 submissions in his first 7 fights in MMA. from these 7 submissions 6 were in first round and only one in second round. Since he is in UFC, he hides his abilities of wresstling and BJJ and focuses only on his boxing, but actually he comes from greco-roman wrestling and then acquired black belt in BJJ. His boxing is just a peak of iceberg of his skillset.

[@lucass717]

That's what I've been telling about him 😂 to this delusional Max Fans. Ilia's boxing is just the tip of the iceberg he is more of a grappler than a striker. It's just he doesn't need those to drop his Opponents.

[@curvinredz]

I think he’s hiding it so that they don’t have film on him to study 🧐

3 things most people haven't realized about topuria yet. 1. Highly intelligent and very motivating in his speech. 2. He has a very good chin. 3. He has one of the best self- marketing strategies than any of the new generational fighters in the ufc. He will definitely be a bigger star than O'malley. Trust me, even O'malley knows. They all are tryna fight him for a reason. He is calling out none of them. That one good strategy.

I was thinking this but he’s still not as good as a talker or as entertaining as Conor was but his confidence and the way he’s finishing everyone at 145 is definitely reminiscent of prime Conor. You can just tell he has that “it” factor.

@@mysteretsym Mark my words and watch it happen. Ilia will walk through Max. He was a contender before, now he’s a journeyman and so is Dustin and Justin. None of them are champ material anymore, but in their primes they got close, or in Max’s case, they touched gold. That time is over and Max clings to his fake, journeyman’s title, the BMF, because he knows Ilia will take that away from him, too, if he puts it on the line.

That, but also has grappling on LOCK... so that he has the option to strike in the first place

[@ThisOffendsMeTV]

Had his BJJ down perfectly. Went on to perfect his striking, which at his age so late into being someone who strikes. It’s like he done it since out the womb. His fluidity is insane.

[@ThisOffendsMeTV]

Ilia is the most well rounded and IMO the greatest fighter of all time in terms of skills. My earliest memories were boxing with my father. MMA became obsession with pride and the UFC at like 5 years old. I loved training, watching and experiencing it all. Ilia is terrifying. BJJ? Flawless. Wrestling offensive and defensive? Amazing. Striking? Best in the sport. Chin? Insane. Recovery time? Insane. KO power? You have it or you don’t. It’s a born thing. He’s got it. People don’t realize how luck we are to watch this dude.

The first time i saw this guy, i knew he'd be a champion one day. Ilia is elite due to being highly capable in so many facets of the game. His transitions specifically.

Topuria walked through some hard shots from Volk, and was cut by Volk. Then went on to confuse Volk with feints and end the fight with combos that have dark intentions. Same way I called the fight a few days before..🙏🏼 Topuria will attack Max and slip in to test his chin for sure. Max should consider the head kick as a wild card. In the end after 5 rounds one of these Champs will get the W by decision more than likely due to their iron chins.

His head movement is much better than most fighters. His stance is low to protect the takedown. He seems to have adapted boxing to MMA very well.

[@prince_sach50]

He’s most well rounded

[@chriswilson1968]

Max does have a couple things going for him here. His chin and his length. If anyone is going to beat Topuria it's probably Max. Actually doing that tho is gonna be tough. Max doesn't have one shot KO power so he will need to avoid danger and out point him over 5 rounds without getting taken down too many times or caught. Very tall task.

[@IamH24]

It's hard to outpoint someone like ilia who can close the distance so fast with powerful 2,3 combos, but I believe the only way Max to win the rounds will definitely be a lot of jabs, knees when ilia trys to come in and spinning back kicks he used on gaethje.

[@chriswilson1968]

@@IamH24 I personally thought that was maybe the worst Justin we have ever seen. Outside of Khabib but who can do anything against him? He looked out of shape and just off in general. Getting his nose broken in r1 hurt him a lot also. I think if it was the Justin that fought Fiziev it could have went a lot different. Something just didn't seem right with him in that fight. And it kinda left a bad taste in my mouth when Max told him to stand and bang knowing Justin was way compromised and had been eye poked multiple times but he knew Justin would never refuse. A little cheap in my opinion but fair play I guess.

No bullshit Topuria is one of the most complete fighters to ever step into the Octagon. I know a lot of people love Max but he should have never left 155 to fight this monster. Max has outgrown 145 for a long time now and now he's coming back down in weight and it's gonna be a brutal cut. This is gonna be a shutout and worse than his third fight with Volk.

You obviously have not been through his line up… he beat Bryce Mitchell on the ground like it was nothing and Bryce Mitchell is crazy dangerous on the ground…he walked through Ryan Halls submission game and koed him… he demolished Josh Emmet… he moved up to 155 and got the KO… the fighters that spoke in this video are all great well respected knowledgeable fighters… stop making excuses for Volks loss… a good fighter knows when not to fight… that proves Ilia to be smarter than Volk

Cry he will beat Mitchell

[@savagereign]

Plus Volk didn't even fight like normal. Volk is usually very aggressive, and in that fight he didn't have that same instinct. Alexander the Great did not show up vs Ilia. I don't think Volk is the same after that bell ringing from Islam.

​@@savagereignvolk was afraid of ilias power thats why he couldn't be agressive

Max is still bitter but tries to hide his real feelings!!! Ilija is The Real Deal!!! The most complete fighter in UFC

[@bksmarks6623]

I really hope max to win it, but no bullsht ilia is scary. Ilia is the only that can give problems to makhachev.
