Topuria's coach named the Georgian's advantages over Volkanovski
Mentor of Spanish UFC featherweight of Georgian origin Ilia Topuria Jorge Clement spoke about the upcoming fight of his ward against the champion from Australia Alexandra Volkanovski.
Their confrontation will be the main event of UFC 298, which will take place on February 17 in Anaheim.
“Honestly, I don’t see any weaknesses in Volkanovski. He is still the best fighter in the division. Of course, accepting a fight with Islam Makhachev on short notice was not the best decision. However, there is no doubt that his motivation is now at the highest level.

Alex has practically no flaws, but I know that he is inferior to Topuria in all aspects. Volkanovski is more experienced, but Ilia has better striking technique, takedowns and ground attacks. So there is no doubt that everything will work out in our favor,” MMA Junkie quotes the specialist.
