Newly crowned UFC featherweight champion Ilia Topuria shared his emotions after the early victory over Alexander Volkanovski in the main event of UFC 298 in Anaheim, USA.
“I’m insanely happy. People will say that nothing will work out for you, they will criticize you, but know that you don’t need anyone to succeed except yourself. Believe in yourself and work hard. Anything is possible in life - look at me!
Why was I confident that I would knock him out in the second round? I just knew what level my skills were at. I worked really hard and I always knew that one day I would win the UFC belt.
Dana, Hunter, it's time to bring a UFC event to my country! Conor McGregor, if you have any balls left, I will be waiting for you in Spain!” Topuria said after the fight.
