Islam Makhachev Warns Cutting Back to 155 for Ilia Topuria Would Require a Massive Offer

10+ hour, 59+ min ago (453+ words) Islam Makhachev has barely settled into life as the new ruler at 170 after overpowering Jack Della Maddalena in the UFC 322 main event, yet the conversation around him quickly shifted to Ilia Topuria. Fans still want the meeting between the champions, and Topuria added fuel when he dismissed Makhachev's showing as "boring" moments after the bout. The rivalry between them has been building for months. Many supporters have insisted that the only fair setting would be 155, the division Makhachev dominated before moving up. Others argue that Topuria should simply follow him to 170 since he has repeatedly claimed that he would do it for this matchup. The lightweight champion has loudly hinted that he welcomes the challenge. Makhachev, however, made it clear that the road back to his old class is nearly closed. Makhachev has always been a large athlete for the…...

Sean O’Malley Says UFC Will Avoid Topuria vs. Tsarukyan Because Arman Can Beat Him

16+ hour, 5+ min ago (443+ words) Sean O'Malley says Arman Tsarukyan poses the strongest challenge for Ilia Topuria and believes UFC may avoid the matchup. Sean O'Malley has raised concern about whether UFC is willing to pair Ilia Topuria with Arman Tsarukyan next. In his view, Tsarukyan has become the most serious danger to the champion after a dominant win, and that alone might cause the promotion to avoid booking the fight. Tsarukyan blasted through Dan Hooker at UFC Qatar, taking over the contest until he finished with a tight head and arm choke in Round 2. The victory also showed again that he can reach the 155 limit after the late withdrawal ahead of UFC 311. Even though he sits at the top of the contender list, O'Malley believes UFC sometimes delays strong threats if easier or more marketable names are available. In his recent video, he explained…...
