Topuria reminds Cormier of McGregor from the Aldo fight

Alexandr Ormanji Feb. 9, 2024, 9:19 a.m.

Daniel Cormier, a former two-division UFC champion and current commentator and analyst, said that the current contender for the organization's featherweight championship belt Ilia Topuria reminds him Conor McGregor since the fight against Aldo.

ā€œHeā€™sĀ already made himself a champion. He has already stated that he will fight Conor at a stadium in Spain. He has already said that Volkanovski cannot compete with him. Usually, fighters slow down before a fight, but this guy, on the contrary, increases the pressure. His confidence in himself reminds me of Conorā€™s confidence before the fight with Aldo...ā€ said Cormier.

Let us remind you that Topuria will fight his next fight against UFC featherweight champion Alex Volkanovski. TheirĀ confrontation will headline UFC 298.
