Ilia is hands-down one of the smartest fighters I've ever seen, to be honest. And he knows exactly what he wants to say and how to say it. The man's a sharp artist, straight up. I'm expecting really big things from him.
“Why are you shadow boxing, go and rest” “I wanna scare you a little bit 😏” Bro I laughed so fucking hard out of nowhere that shit was so funny to me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Max genuinely looks mad! This fight has the potential to be one of the best ever. IMO the two best boxers in the ufc. Interesting they have very different striking styles.
@@porkerpete7722 I’m talking about him trolling and laughing at certain things Holloway says. It’s like Ilia doesn’t even take himself serious at times in a funny way.
I swear, him turning heel has made this division much more enjoyable now. It's like when Mcgregor was heel. Not to that extreme extent but its up there.
@@porkerpete7722it’s just arrogance lol there’s nothing stoic about him, Pereira is stoic. I do like his arrogant trash talk though, it’s definitely selling the fight
@@NotUrDJspanish georgian russian and german has absolutely no similarities, to read Georgian you even need to know other alphabet than Latin. Wtf are you talking about 🤣🤣🤣
I mean Illia worked his way up the rankings and took risk when guys like Patty Pimplett did not want to fight Illia. Illia didn’t get that Dana privilege as well.
@@javierlandaverde4108 What risks do you honestly think he took? Josh Emmett, Bryce Mitchell, Jai Herbert, Ryan Hall, Damon Jackson, and Youssef Zalal. 3 KOs and a submission win in those 6 is still impressive but realistically he didn't take any risks. He was handed a title fight against Volk who was fresh off a KO loss.
Volk beat Max in 3 fights. Max couldn't knock him out in 15 rounds. Illia knocked him out in 2 rounds. I think he's already backed it up and I'm a Volk guy.
You should also acknowledge volk got KOd vs islam 3 months prior. His chin was suspect already. Fair fight yes but he needed more time to prepare adequately @callumellery456
Ilia is sooooo good. Usually, you can tone down the arrogance when you're that good ha ha. People appreciate more. But he has such the big mouth. He can lose of course, but he is so complete. Even if, and that's a big IF, Max lights him up on the feet, he can always go back to wrestling and grappling.
Max to Illia: "Say something new you've been saying the same thing the whole time you've been talking." Meanwhile... Max: "We'll find out October 26th." 😂😂😂
I don't seee anyone doubting Max in this fight the way everyone doubted him against Justin. Yet, the MMA math would suggest that Illia will win based on what he did to Volk. Styles make fights. This one should be a banger. Im looking forward to the entire 308 card 🔥

Sometimes it is a waste to ask Max a question. The answer is always "we are going to find out Saturday night". So glad his fighting style is as entertaining as it is because he doesn't help the buildup outside of the octagon.
