The former UFC champion was positive about Topuria's prospects at lightweight

"It will be interesting to see him at lightweight. I'd still like to see him at welterweight though. Yes, he has big wins over Volkanovski and Max Holloway, but I think the move up in weight was a bit premature. And it's not that he's not capable of winning the lightweight title. I'm sure he can do it, but why not sweep the division?" - Serra said on The Overdogs podcast.
