Ilia can definitely knock out islam, ilia did what islam couldn't which was one punch knockout Volk on a full camp.

with youth its a killer combo that has worked for eons lol. i thought volk could get it done but all week I told people that father time has a trillion title defenses.
that's what people said before this fight, also confident only kills if it's fake confedence, when you have real confedence because you ahve work for it is very strong
After a head kick KO you need a year to be right. Dude went from fighting a Lion to a matador (a Spaniard bull). "Rematch!!! We talking bout a rematch! He' ll be lucky if he sees the 2nd round!" (Colts coach).
Illia turned out to be for Alex what Strickland was for Adesanya with the boxing style, which was taunting and like a cryptonite or something. This kid is fun to watch and people gotta appreciate exciting fighters.
it really does lmao the featherweight division has been one of the worst division in the UFC forrr years now MW was the worst thats why Izzys reign was so long nowadays Izzys reign wouldnt last more than 2 or maybe 3 defenses lmao
Styles make fights but I don't think he's wrong about the division and possible matchups. Volk easily beat everyone at the top right now and illia ko'd him like he was any other unranked figher. This is why I love this sport.
Man, boxing can really learn a thing or two from this sport. The privilege to find out who is the best in the sport is amazing. He literally backed himself to be champion and declared himself champion before actually becoming champion on his socials. The level of confidence he has as a fighter is incredible, it’s hard to disagree with what he says because he backs it up. How many featherweights can talk about finishing volk😂 the only guy to do it is in a different weight class and it’s understandable. I’m a fan now and I believe in the hype 🙌🏾
Ya can't say he ko'd him like any other unranked fighter when Volk was winning the entire fight up until that shot lol. Great shot, but he was not showing to be levels ahead or making anything look easy.
Ilia fought old Volk after hard Ko from islam ..lol let's see what he can do to Movsar on the ground ..= nothing ...Movsar will takehim down and jeep him 5 rounds lol
Best fighters in the world have a strong ability to calculate on the fly their opponents timing inside the octagon Jones is masterful and perhaps the best in the world at this
There is a clear difference between a strong guy that comes in there with the INTENTION of finishing a fight, and a strong guy like Costa who HOPES to finish a fight. Topuria is not waiting for the opportunity to happen, he creates it.
I think we need more Professionals like Megan. And a lot less of amateurs like Nina. Can we start actually treating this like a sport again and not a circus
Congratulations Ilia Topuria! Masterclass performance and win against one of the all time greats in Volk, truly the beginning of a new era in the Featherweight division now.
What a guy... he was so confident and talking a lot before the fight before he had the belt because he knew his skills and abilities. After winning the belt you can see he is really humble and not cocky as some people said. This guy will be the champion for years to come.

@@rozierg8184 on the feet sure but Mosar unlike other challengers has the grappling but more importantly the wrestling aspect of grappling to make it extended unlike someone like Ortega imo
yea topuria beat volk without any sorta flukes and showed his hard work. but just the names you listed. those are the people volk beat, not ilia. ilia has to show us he can beat those people, just because you beat the dude who beat all those guys doesn't mean there is no competition. i really want ilia to stay at fw and defend the title and build a record for himself as a champ. please no champ vs champ fights unless he starts clearing out division himself as the champ.
@ender_z4nd3r83 let's stop with the 🍆🌊 and be real. MMA math doesn't add up. He's acting like he's beat the whole division when his best other win than Volk is Emmett... To me, he still needs to defend 3 or 4 times before there's any talk of fighting at another weight category
Im spaniard. Tbh It was obvius Ilia was getting this easy... Anyways all the respect to Volk. He seems a real good person. When nowadays is hard to find sometimes. Keep your head up Alexander. You been a great champion like your name it is.

Tip of the cap to this new Champ. He handled the moment and visualized this happening when most did not. Impressive
Honesty you could see after a few punches that Volk couldn’t really handle his power.
Movsar, Allen, Yair, Max? I like Topuria and knew he had every ability to win but is he really, seriously calling out 3 years out from fighting, post leg break, boxing style McGregor?
@@cilantro619And After, Islam Will smash Topuria 😅😅
Honestly let Volk recover and did we forget that Holloway exists?
Justin will make him braindead
If Holloway fights Ilia now, Holloway will win.
That won't be the case after Gaethje destroys his chin.
@@jameshenderson5705keep dreaming even if Holloway fights ilia now, he doesn't stand a chance
😂😂😂
@@vicentegeonixNaa he might be right bro . That’s why I wish he wouldn’t have took that fight before this one went down .
This young man is a savage and will be tough to beat!
Large tattoo across chest: Conor ✔️ Ilia ✔️
Long tattoo along spine: Conor ✔️ Ilia ✔️
Bird tattoo behind neck: Conor ✔️ Ilia ✔️
Being a clown at press conference: Conor ✔️ Ilia ✔️
Grabbing opponent’s belt: Conor ✔️ Ilia ✔️
Being original: Conor ✔️ Ilia ❌
I kept telling you guys, why you didn’t believe me.
You’re not Illia Topuria
No matter how many accounts and thumbnails you create in your basement - you’re not him.
Go outside.
@@courthogan3140it is him I saw him typing this in between interviews
Same here!
Everybody said max would get knocked out by guys like allen, kattar and dp. None was successful. Illia definitely has the power but holloway has a chin from the gods
Tbh, no one said Kattar and Allen would knock him out.
He’s 27 ffs. We are having a long reign I guess. Vamosssss 🔝🔥
We need a rematch for sure
All respect to Illia I was so sure Volk would do the job but props to him.
Mental KO 😮
Mosar evlov vs ilia is the matchup to make. Ilia has him but he’s the only one in the division I think would challenge him. Besides Max however as great as max is on the feet he’s relatively one-dimensional
Bro ilia would do bad things to movsar
Ilia sleeps him in 1 round
@@rozierg8184 on the feet sure but Mosar unlike other challengers has the grappling but more importantly the wrestling aspect of grappling to make it extended unlike someone like Ortega imo
Topuria nukes Mosar
Ilia is gonna be another Sean Strickland and lose his belt in a few months.
Was rooting for Volk for this exact reason he will avoid contenders and try and fight Conor.
@rabbigoldbergsilverstein2899How dare I want a champion to fight the contenders in his division! 😂😂😂 casual
@@Calmzathe really don't have a choice
@rabbigoldbergsilverstein2899 Cope? Topuria is literally saying this lmao, ur the one coping
He’s marketing him and everyone knows conor might not even fight again. Plus he’s already said he’ll fight Max in Spain before
Salty Assuie fan
He came into the fight so hungry. His body language and intent was crystal clear.
Love Volk, but hats off to Ilia.
I know people always have hatred toward someone with huge confidence, but the kid is amazing.
she likes him
Why do you say that 😂
Max Holloway, Arnold Allen, Yair Rodriguez, Kattar, Brian Ortega...the list goes on of people he skipped
OR is Ilia afraid?
So we are going to act now like Volk is easy to beat, ok
yea topuria beat volk without any sorta flukes and showed his hard work. but just the names you listed. those are the people volk beat, not ilia. ilia has to show us he can beat those people, just because you beat the dude who beat all those guys doesn't mean there is no competition. i really want ilia to stay at fw and defend the title and build a record for himself as a champ. please no champ vs champ fights unless he starts clearing out division himself as the champ.
@ender_z4nd3r83 let's stop with the 🍆🌊 and be real. MMA math doesn't add up. He's acting like he's beat the whole division when his best other win than Volk is Emmett...
To me, he still needs to defend 3 or 4 times before there's any talk of fighting at another weight category
This guy will become the biggest star in the UFC.
Lol no
@@muhammadzariff7075absolutely yes,yes good at everything
@@muhammadzariff7075 butthurt volk lost?
Your tripin on that
I was going for volk but ggs to the new champ, i underestimated this guy
Diego Lopes will be coming for that belt.
Go up to 55 and belt Paddy 🤣🤣🤣
If you actually want Ilia to fight Conor next you’re a casual 😂😂😂
casuals pay the bills yo hahahaha
Congrats ilia u deserve all the glory wohoo
ONLY GOD GETS THE GLORY✝️🇮🇱♥️💯
His body shots are under rated. His finishes with the follow up to a body shot are just beautiful to watch. His striking reminds me of a prime conor
Y tiene razón. Como ABSOLUTAMENTE TODO lo que ha dicho hasta ahora.
Ilia is the real deal! Wow! He had his IG bio changed to 15-0, featherweight champ before the fight. Unreal… manifested that vision into reality.
Vamos campeoooon 🇪🇦🇬🇪👊
EL NUEVO CAMPEÓN 🇪🇸🌹
GEORGIANO
Congrats champ you deserve it. It's officially your time. I wish you nothing but the best. Can't wait to see you in action again
Facts he would knock all of them out.
Im spaniard. Tbh It was obvius Ilia was getting this easy... Anyways all the respect to Volk. He seems a real good person. When nowadays is hard to find sometimes. Keep your head up Alexander. You been a great champion like your name it is.
A Hindu Spaniard? Now, i’ve seen it all.
Buff,ahora a aguantar al tonto este.
Si ya estaba flipado antes.....
@@muhammadzariff7075 Yeah lool. Maybe he is a spaniard made in china, which explains him being a poor quality spaniard
As a Georgian I will say that spain, you are welcome since you guys can’t produce your own fighters. This is all Geoegian and caucasian blood. The best warriors on the planet
People telling ur not spaniard for the name 😂😂😂if i am from Spain my son cant be a Ivan its illegal
