UFC featherweight champion Ilia  Topuria has been making waves with his plans to move up to the lightweight division, and his recent comments have caught the attention of many, including former UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman.

During an episode of his Pound 4 Pound podcast, Usman expressed his admiration for Topuria’s confidence and aura of invincibility. “When you have that aura of invincibility, there’s just something about that. I don’t care who it is. Ilia Topuria has that right now. He does not care. Put up Conor [McGregor], I’ll put him to sleep…Charles Oliveira, I’ll put him to sleep…Islam [Makhachev], I’ll put him to sleep,” Usman said.

Ilia Topuria’s Desire to Move Up to the Lightweight Division

Ilia Topuria, who recently knocked out Alexander Volkanovski to become the new featherweight champion and followed that up with a knockout win over Max Holloway, has been vocal about his desire to challenge top contenders in the lightweight division.
