Topuria: "My goal is to knock out Holloway."

Dmitriy Kel July 4, 2024, 7:29 a.m.

UFC featherweight champion Elijah Topuria explained why his bout against former titleholder Max Holloway has yet to be announced.

"I'm willing to agree to any date. Max is the one making excuses not to fight. I've gotten calls saying he has family problems, that he can't lose weight, that he wants to move to another division ...

I know I'll be the first to knockout Holloway. I respect everything he's accomplished. I will enjoy sharing the octagon with him. But time marches on and kings don't rule forever. This is my moment. Victory by knockout over Holloway - that's my goal," - quotes Topuria Marca.
