Topuria: “Who said I want to fight McGregor at featherweight?”

Newly crowned UFC featherweight champion Ilia Topuria stated that he is ready to fight with the main star of the promotion Conor McGregor at any weight.

“Dana White said McGregor is unlikely to return to featherweight? And who said that I want to fight him at featherweight? I’m ready to fight him at any weight, let him choose. If he is ready to fight at this level, then let him choose the weight himself. I will choose a location.

Why did I challenge Conor to a fight? Because it represents the last chapter of MMA, and I want to turn over this chapter and forget about it,” Topuria said at a press conference.

Let us remind you that on February 18, in the main event of the UFC 298 tournament in Anaheim, USA, Topuria knocked out Alexander Volkanovski in the second round.
