There is nobody Ilia Topuria loves more than himself.
Even before strapping the 145-pound title around his waist in February, ‘El Matador’ was singing his own praises and making some pretty big plans for the future. To be fair, Topuria has lived up to his self-induced hype, smashing former featherweight king Alexander Volkanovski in the second round of their UFC 298 headliner while keeping his ‘O’ intact.
To celebrate all he’s accomplished, Topuria took to social media where he paid tribute to the person who has provided him with everything he has.
