TJ Dillashaw the former UFC bantamweight champion criticized the organization's ex-champion in the featherweight division Alex Volkanovski for his performance in the fight with Ilia Topuria.

“Alex was scared. Every time Topuria advanced, Alex dodged and retreated. I'm a big fan of Volkanovski, but he simply retreated with every move his opponent made. He was afraid of Topuria's power. So it was only a matter of time before the knockout happened... That's why everything went wrong. Because Alex was scared. Because he was afraid to fight, afraid of his opponent’s strength. That’s why he fought like that...” Dillashaw said.

Let us remind you that Ilia Topuria finished Alex Volkanovski in the second round in the main fight of UFC 298.
