Topuria: "Our fight with O'Malley will be the loudest fight in UFC history"

UFC featherweight champion Ilia Topuria has spoken out about a possible fight with lower division titleholder Sean O'Malley.

"O'Malley is going to have a fight against Dvalishvili. Merab will kick his ass. If not, I'll wait for Sean. There's no point in us fighting now because O'Malley has a challenger that deserves this fight. I honestly think Dvalishvili will beat him.

I've already congratulated O'Malley on his first defense. He said: "Defend your title. If everything goes right, our fight will be the loudest fight in UFC history." That's what we're going for. If he defends his belt, our fight will be the biggest fight in history. If we can make it at the Sanyago Bernabeu, all the better," MMA Fighting quoted Topuria as saying.
