Makhachev – about Topuria’s statements: “If he continues in the same spirit, he can finish the game”

Current UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev told that the promotion’s featherweight champion Ilia Topuria “can end the game” if he continues to speak out against him.

Earlier, Georgian fighter Topuria, representing Spain, said that he would emerge victorious from a street fight with Makhachev. Topuria also accused Bellator lightweight champion Usman Nurmagomedov of doping.

– Topuria challenged you, and two people on your team reacted harshly. What will happen if one of your friends passes him in the street?

– If Topuria continues in the same spirit, he will be able to finish the game. Something could happen. So far I haven’t seen anyone cross personal boundaries, nothing like this has happened yet. He needs to focus on his weight category and defend his belt at least once,” Makhachev told .

Topuria won the championship belt in February by defeating Australian Alexander Volkanovski at the UFC 298 tournament. At the end of October at UFC 308 he will meet American Max Holloway.
