UFC featherweight champion Ilia Topuria admitted that his dream fight is a fight with the former leader of the lightweight division Khabib Nurmagomedovwho hung up his gloves in 2020.

“I would be very happy to share the octagon with Khabib. He has an undefeated record of 29-0. First, there is his tempting record. Secondly, this is history. I consider him a worthy and honorable champion. But I would have beaten him, 100 percent,” Topuria said in an interview with Championship Rounds.

Let us remind you that on February 17, in the main event of the UFC 298 tournament in Anaheim, USA, Topuria knocked out Alexander Volkanovski in the second round and took the title in the weight category up to 65.8 kg.
