is Topuria very confident, or is he an arrogant jerk

[Sticko]

You don't seem to understand what "mass appeal" means.

You still didn't answer my question. Anyway I meant "mass appeal" within the MMA community. 2.2m followers is a lot for a UFC fighter. It's actually more than Volk has.

If your only point was that he's not Conor McGregor, why did you waste your time and mine to say that?

This thread is either very stupid or dumb.

Top is getting Volk off the rebound, this seems like the ultimate opportunity… I’d be confident too considering the circumstances and stylistic matchup, that being said Ilia hasn’t fought anyone remotely close to the level of Prime Volk. Add that its not a given that Volk is still in the same class as he was even a year ago, unfortunately some fighters age overnight, especially after a bad loss.

What you meant by it is irrelevant. You responded to a point I made to another poster, so either you play along with the established parameters of the existing conversation, or move along. You don't get to decide what we're talking about just because you're wrong about what I initially said.

Topuria will win in style imo

 

[JoeRowe]

I bet on Topuria but I'm starting to get GSP vs Hendricks/Jones vs Reyes vibes

I think DC said something to that effect when he had the HW belt and Francis was lurking; essentially that he didn't wanna fight him as he wasn't trying to get touched by Francis' Ford Escorts.

Thats pretty funny. He did get in the cage with AJ twice though so props for that lol

I find it hilarious that everyone is writing off Volk just because he lost to Mak who is massive and one of the best guys in the world. Top has never fought anyone on this level before and yet everyone thinks Volk is just gonna get steam rolled.

Good luck with that, I think Volk dominates him.

I'm with Volk until some FW proves otherwise. One of the best to ever do it.

Well he does has a tattoo of him self on his chest

I remember when Ryan Hall was being hyped as the next big thing. I bet on him to submit some random fighter named Topuria in the first round. I learned pretty quick who Ilia Topuria was after that. Dude is legit as they come.

 

[Trabaho]

So basically he's just a chihuahua

Yeah he does not fight. At all.

Well he does has a tattoo of him self on his chest

He entered new Parameters though.

That's nice for him, if he intends to have a conversation with himself.

If so it's a bad tattoo haha. The tattoo has a receiding hair line and completely different eyebrows.

It's like brother @Barteh noted....you expect these guys to sit on an interview and explain how they see themselves losing? WTF? Or should they all simply take the "My opponent is a great fighter and it will be a great fight. May the best man win!" approach?

So what happens when they get wrecked? Can't say your the best ever and then get fucking shit on and expect anyone to take you seriously - not to mention the ego shit that's gotta be. Thin line between cocky and confident but a line non the less.
