UFC lightweight champion Ilia Topuria is confident that he can knock out the welterweight division belt holder Islam Makhachev.
"Everyone knows that everyone wants to see the fight between Makhachev and me, and for some reason, Islam did not accept it, and then he talks too much. It's very easy to talk from thousands of kilometers away and criticize me, but when I am in the octagon, you begin to realize that I am not Jack Della Maddalena, not Dan Hooker, not all those guys you have faced. I am completely different, and when I hit you with my right, you'll see that a very, very long sleep awaits you," Topuria is quoted by Red Corner MMA.
Let us recall, earlier Topuria announced that he is taking a break from his career due to personal issues.
