Ilia Topuria is teasing something big.
Just a few short weeks ago, Dana White sent fight fans into a frenzy when he announced that Topuria was vacating his featherweight title after just one defense. Citing a struggle to make the 145-pound weight limit, Topuria is expected to move up to lightweight where he’s expected to immediately chase the division’s top prize.
Since then, everyone has been waiting with bated breath to find out when Topuria will fight against, and more importantly, who it’ll be against.
