Topuria revealed when he plans to return to the octagon

UFC featherweight champion Elijah Topuria said he would like to make the debut defense of his title at UFC 308, scheduled for October 26 in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

"I'm ready, waiting for the UFC to call me. Could fight in September, October, November or December. I always say I'm ready. My life is a perpetual training camp. I just need a little bit of time to get the weight off. Other than that, I'm ready. As for a specific date - I prefer Abu Dhabi in October. I want my fight to take place at a convenient time for the Spanish," - quoted Topuria Marca.

Topuria's next opponent is expected to be Max Holloway.
