Amid claims he’s weighing up a light-weight transfer in his return, Ilia Topuria has been urged to honor a struggle with Alexander Volkanovski at first by Dan Hooker — who labelled the unbeaten featherweight champion a “d*ckhead” for looking for a manner out of the rematch.
Topuria, the present undisputed featherweight champion, retained his title for the primary time again in October within the headliner of UFC 308, taking out former champion, Max Holloway with a hellacious third spherical knockout of their grudge struggle in Abu Dhabi.
As for Hooker, the Metropolis Kickboxing star has been lined up for an enormous struggle in his return to motion — probably versus former interim champion, Justin Gaethje — having turned in his third straight at UFC 305 again in August with a choice success towards Mateusz Gamrot.
Ilia Topuria ripped for eyeing light-weight transfer by Dan Hooker
Nonetheless, amid claims he would welcome a light-weight transfer in pursuit of a title eliminator towards former gold holder, Charles Oliveira, Georgian-Spaniard knockout ace, Topuria has been informed to neglect a couple of 155lbs leap in the intervening time.
“Just classic sh*t,” Dan Hooker mentioned throughout an interview with Submission Radio. “It’s pretty evident that he’s just working off (Conor) McGregor’s playbook and line one of McGregor’s playbook is just like keep your name in the headlines. So, like, that’s all that I kind of see from it is (Ilia) Topuria keeping his name in headlines. The guy doesn’t fight that often. I think he just fights Volk sometime next year, March, April.”
“Bro, well then don’t get in the f*cking cage with him (Alexander Volkanovski) and agree to fight him, d*ckhead,” Dan Hooker mentioned . “You let him get in the cage, you had a face-off with him, and you said you’d fight him. Bro, man to man, that’s that. You’ve agreed, you already agreed to a fight. How are you going to back out of it now?”
