UFC featherweight champion Ilia Topuria published a motivational message on Instagram, not forgetting to express gratitude Alexandru Volkanovski, from whom he took the belt last weekend at the UFC 298 tournament.
“A lot of people will say you can’t do it - they bring you down and let you doubt yourself. But remember, to achieve something, you only need yourself. Believe in yourself, work tirelessly, and everything will come.
It doesn’t matter where you came from as long as you know where you are going and what lies ahead is much more important than what is left behind. Never give up! Just stand and fight!
Thank you, Wolf - you were a very difficult opponent who made me a better person. It was a great honor for me to share the octagon with you!” the Georgian wrote.
