Thank You ! - Zábava
For y'all wondering, my voice guy has a cold, therefore the 'batman' voice.
WHERE IS SHE?!?!
Ilia nickname should be El Toro not Matador
can you drop the name for the song that starts at 11:50 mate
I like Brandon at the end of the video it made me laugh 😂
I hate it when people make it videos with a cold, like wait till your healthy instead of always giving that excuse
The way he surfs his opponent in scrambles is so aesthetically pleasing
He’s so damn technical.
In boxing he’s getting better and better every fight.
He was scary quick in emmet fight.
I expect him to look even better this fight.
Volk vs Topuria will be an all time great fight
So hyped for it. Potential passing of the guard at 145.
This fight is gonna be amazing
Topuria with the W
Definitely not but good ko
indeed
He can really box for an mma fighter. Looking at his mechanics, you’d think he started off as a pure boxer
The interesting thing is that his trainer is mainly a boxer and he has recently said that he is amazed at how much Ilia has improved since the fight with Emmet. So as sharp as we looked vs Emmet he may come even better vs Alex😮
@@stephenr80he’s truly blessed he has 3 coaches and the 3 are brothers (Climent brothers) , 2 of them are mostly focused on wrestling and bjj and the 3rd brother is his boxing coach
That's actually pretty smart. That's why he's so well rounded I guess @@leocanela279
Two Climent are brothers (Agustín and Jorge) mainly focused on BJJ, and Javi Climent is his boxing coach, but he is not related with Agustín and Jorge. And Topuria started as wrestler in Georgia, then BJJ with Climent brothers. Boxing is his last discipline 😅😅
tuporia and jack madelena have cleanest boxing in ufc.
And now he's a UFC Champion 🏆
What has me most excited about this fight is that we still have to find out where Topurias ceiling is. And we know that Volk = greatness. This ones gonna be a banger 🔥
You have to worry for Volk though... He's been rocked badly by Max, and Topuria hits like a smaller Francis Ngannou.
Correct
Imagine Topuria beats Alex and Max, thats potential FW GOAT status
@@starseeddeluxe smaller Ngannou with the speed, precision and arguebly the best boxer in UFC... naah only thing they have in common is the power, other than that Topuria is on another level
Calling him a possible champ champ before he even has one belt is kinda crazy
Even worse were casuals saying Chimaev would be triple champ even before he beat a ranked opponent
I would’ve agreed with you as well had I not see his highlights, his previous fights were ridiculous, bro moved up to 155lbs and took out a durable and tall fighter, bro has top tier boxing and maturity, showed it especially with Emmett, def taking out Volk for sure but idk about Islam, maybe 135lbs for sure
@@bannedaccount6016he will, write it on the wall
Conor Mcgregor has done it before
@@bannedaccount6016 No one was saying that
Topuria is a fine specimen
lol gaaaaayyyy😂😂😂
@@yourfatebaby5730 i already knew what the reply would be :D
@@yourfatebaby5730 😂
common hes a midget lmaooo also sus af bro wtff hahaha
lmaoooooo@@yourfatebaby5730
As this fight is drawing nearer it seems more and more intense. LFG!!!
Can't wait
Who’s here after the fight?
Not only is he relentless, he is now also the ufc featherweight champion
None of my friends believed me when I told em Ilia would beat Volk. We Mexicans love Topuria and Georgia 💯💯💯
We need more career breakdowns like this you really understand MMA this is gold 🤝
Ilia has crisp boxing for being grapple based, excited for his fight with Volk 🔥
17th February is a big moment for Georgians (and Spain too). If he's able to pull of that win on one of the best p4p fighter, we would go absolutely crazy. He's still young and has so much time to improve his game, can't wait to see him in the future
Topuria is one of the few young fighters getting better every fight
His boxing is so beautiful to watch, maaan. pure joy. Combos, speed, accuracy, he really has a beautiful style of moving.
Body shots are gonna be key with Volkanovski
Don't forget about the kicks. Topuria likes to sit down on his punches a bit too much, and if Volk can exploit that by disrupting his rhythm and taking away his base with well-timed feints and kicks, he'll be in for a long night.
Backshots too
Initating grappling to change the boxing tempo
@@vn5774 I agree. He was susceptible to Emmets leg kicks. The american didn’t capitalise on it though, and only landed a few (which is understandable taking into account he was getting his face busted).
I think Volkanovski and his team have definitely noticed and will try to take advantage of it, but we also saw holes in Topuria’s boxing and cardio in the Bryce fight and he solved them all for Emmet. He might show up with an efficient leg kick checking game.
I think he really has a good chance of knocking Volk out (or at least hurting him bad enough to find a finish) with his hands. Alex has been dropped in most of his recent fights (Islam knocked him down in both fights, Max did, Yair did and even Ortega), and Topuria hits harder than any of them. His boxing defence also seemed very polished against Emmet.
It’s going to be a banger.
@@vn5774 booo i forgot about leg kicks. Volk can rack up points like that to win. Otherwise know hoe its going down
Ilia is built different. He's going to go down in history as one of the greats.
Topuria is a beast
An Animal
Volk is the beast slayer
Volk is a good cook and likes to cook beast
Topuria getting the belt mark my words
He will. But not yet.
Iv honestly thought he could be a problem for Volk for a while, if anyone is going to do it it’s him especially when taking the recent k.o Volk had. He should have taken 6 months off at least and is now fighting one of the hardest hitting guys in the division
Your words are Marked ... see you soon, boy..
You won't bet on it
I think he will out edge volk
Let’s go ilia! 🇪🇸
Hopping on the bandwagon
@EQUINOXexcell hopping on bandwagon??? No, ninja.. we Georgians watching Ilia wasaay before UFC... Double Champ Baby 🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪
@@thefatalveli1225 just started watching UFC huh? Islam Molest ilia btw
@@EQUINOXexcell get the fart outta here, with your Islam 😅😅😅 ilia will knock him out tooo
@@EQUINOXexcellLeon molest Islam
Vamos Ilia!!🇬🇪🤝🏻🇪🇸
The respect I have for Emmet for not quitting cannot be understated, G!
I love how this read like a bedtime story. So relaxing.
Great video. Keep it up!
I Remember even Masvidal 2-3 years ago saying that he is future champ. Me myself believed in that as well. And he did it! He is like Real Madrid in football, winner!!!
This is a story befitting a Champion. Topuria time is upon us 🇪🇸
Hopping on the bandwagon
I became a fan after he KO’d Hall when he was spamming that same move
In many interviews he and his brother have said that this has been the most difficult fight to prepare because of Hall's peculiar style.
That was an insane head kick from Herbert. It’s hard to imagine anyone seeing that coming.
HOLY SHIT just yesterday I was on your page looking for a Topuria video and now you bless us with this thank you bro @MartialLiam ‼️
there's gonna be bunch more leading up to the fight
what a great video mannnn
That fight against Herbert proved a lot for him. I can’t see volk finishing him. He has a real chance here.
Great video, topuria is amazing!
Topuria: *fights like a bull, at least on the feet.*
Also Topuria: *adopts the nickname "El Matador"*
Truly one of the nicknames of all time.
It sure is a nickname
He doesn’t get hit so it makes sense
His nickname should be El Toro
One of the many nicknames of all time
Great video! As for his upcoming fight, I'm just excited to see it. I'm not going to pick a winner!
It’s amazing how Rogan paints a narrative, then it blows up his face.
Rogan: “it’s a mistake to take Bryce Mitchell down”
Ten seconds later ilia submits him. Joe says nothing.
Nobody believed in him, but he didnt give a shit
babe wake up, new Martial Liam just dropped 🗿🗿🗿🗿
This is first video you watch lol .
Talk about asking for likes
Stupid ass drone clones. **smfh**
@@NRC613 ive been subbed for like a year, ive watched dozens of videos idk what youre talking about
@@tylercobb6381 we see your engagement.
CZcams beta test shows which video from past chs videos ppl saw.
So we can discuss relevant details.
In hopes to fight spam.
@@NRC613 where do you see this information? i go to the channel and see the red line under several videos showing ive watched them all the way through.
AND NEW CHAMPION OF THE WORLD 🇬🇪🇪🇦🌹
Congrats
He's 27 years old I'm not lying he's probably the most talented all around fighter I've seen in MMA I've been watching combat sports since UFC 2 in the mid-90s mind you he's already the champion 1 by knocking out the pound-for-pound in the game volk ... So God bless good luck I'm looking forward to watching his career great work champ
He's definitely not even in top 5 best all round fighters. Definitely has the potential to be an all time great though.
The Matador moniker just fits that he represents Spain along his georgian blood. But it couldnt be more fitting. He really just cuts the ring and comes for you like a Bullfighter.
Liam the goat
In a way it’s a passing of the torch because his style is similar to Alexander since they’re both well rounded
His boxing is beautiful, plus considering he grew up being a wrestler. You would even appreciate the way he set up his boxing, might even be better than other long time boxers inside the mma world.
7:55. WOW. That vicious knockout is why Ilia Topuria and Saint Dennis are the two most violent fighters in the UFC right now. Of course nobody is more vicious than Tom Aspinall, but he isn't allowed to fight, because he wins every fight in a few seconds.
He’s going to shock the world
How will it be shocking if he wins lol? Many are counting out Volk and assuming he's declining.
Those shots on Emmet you could hear em like gunshots
Crisp boxing, great reaction time and speed, he's a monster 😮. If you can't sleep him, idk man
Ilia is incredible❤He’s humble and super sincere, you guys. A true champ❤🌟
We’re soooooooooooo backkkkkkkkkkkk.
El Matador really did it
Topuria is very well rounded and powerful in the striking, a physical beast, but he is there to be hit though, something that a smart champion like Volk can definitely take advantage of.
He also throws very ordinary orthodox 3 piece combos at every opportunity. throwing in threes like he always does is a dangerous thing to do against a guy with footwork and counterstriking like Volk has. Ilia looks amazing beating on guys who are stuck in the mud - I just don't see him being a huge problem for the undefeated at featherweight champ. I have to lean on the champion experience and consistant top level opponents for this one. Ilia is in over his head with Volk.
Volk doesn't have many finishes
Volk gets hit too
Volk get caught a lot and if that happens this time is over.
Topuria also likes to sit down on his punches a bit too much, and if Volk can exploit that by disrupting his rhythm and taking away his base with well-timed feints and kicks, he'll be in for a long night.
Imagine how insane it'll be if Topuria walks through Volk. It'll be absolutely mental.
Walks through Alex lol 🤣 this will be a great match and possibly 50/50 who wins. But no one is walking through anyone in this fight
@@SuperJammz Yeah I don't expect it, just saying it'll be really wild. I actually still favor Alex getting a decision. Topuria has power in those hands but he gets hit a lot as well and he isn't used to dealing with someone like Volk who can neutralize his wrestling.
@@Palaecro fair call. I agree it would be wild if It did happen. I love Volk but I am honestly not sure if he will win. And sadly I won't be able to watch live. On rotation at the moment and we don't get tv or anything out here. Wil blanket ban myself from social media until I get home early March. Can't wait to watch it. The whole card really
@@SuperJammz I hear ya, could go either way! Good luck avoiding social media, man the results always have a way of sneaking into my phone as much as I avoid it.
@@Palaecro Walked thru volk
MAN topuria is something else
4:14 "I'm the next champion you know?"
Yes you are my boy 🙂
Emmett is beaten like a dog. Very sad to see his condition.
Bloody sweet🔥🔥🔥
Martial Liam with the Kamaru usman voice
Don't let him bully you, son
voice guy has a cold
Tuporia 🇩🇪🇬🇪🇪🇸
great vid of a great fighter
If Topuria doesn't beat Volk, I don't think there's anyone else currently in the division.
Movsar Evloev ducked him, it was not because of Topuria's “dangerous weight cut”. That dangerous cut was for Topuria vs Charles Jourdain
@@dorianprentice. Man the fight was scheduled by the UFC and Movsar “got injured” a few days before, of course with how things are now the UFC wants that fight now too, but if it didn't happen in the past it wasn't because of politics of the business, but because Movsar claimed getting injured 🤷🏻♂️
awesome stuff
Who's here after Topuria Got the belt
Great video
that thumbnail is halarious dude. it looks like you captured ilia's o'face.
What a fucking fighter.
Thumbnail looks like Volk already giving him that Australian special
He’s a beast!
Amazing striking with amazing ground game? Dangerous man.
Dude is now the champ!
The MATDOR, door mat? THE DOOR MAT!
ilia is wearing that belt Saturday night. I called this at fight island. 2 years ago, I saw the speed and precision of this mofo and knew instantly he would be a champion. I think he runs thru Volk. And I love them both, but this kid is just too powerful and talented. I hope we see a great fight no matter what.
My head told me Alex my guts Ilia. 🎉 And new!!!
Man’s a beast
best boxer in ufc baby
Amazing fighter, its just crazy how he keeps getting caught with high kicks, but good thing Volkanovski doesn't really throw them. Yair would probably be a problem. Can't wait to see how he matches with Volk.
A single high kick has landed on him like that, it has been the only bad moment he has had in his 14 fights so far.
Stephen Goncalves & Jai Herbert almost knocked him out with high kicks, and I've seen others landing I don't remember opponents now.@@memodev
Ilia’s a monster man, soon he’ll be champion.
Damn right, championship next!!!
intro song is ELIITE
I am excited to watch him against the top guys in both weight classes I think he gives everyone a hard fight
I have him beating Volk in a barnburner of a fight. Volk is a HOFer but Ilia is ready to take the throne. His boxing is crazzzzyyyyy and he has the chin to stand in there with Volk and trade blows
I don’t think Volk will stand there and trade blows with him. Ilia hits too hard. Volk gonna get hurt if he tries to stand and bang with him. I got ilia knocking Volk out 2nd round or 3rd round.
3:31. The commentator was truly terrified 😉
Watching ilia’s fights. It seems like he doesn’t deal well with great kickers but has a good chin
Won or lose, I’d love to see him fight Yair
The guy seems very nice, but in the cage he's a real tiger.
his knockout power insane
Feels like the higher level fighters get, the more boring and back-to-basics it has to go. Ilia is just so great at the fundamentals. He's not doing flying kicks or wild subs, just stays in the pocket and times everything perfectly. I both love and hate this. hehe. ;)
Topuria is the best to come along in that division since Volk. He should be Volk’s toughest test
I was wanting this to much
“I had a tough first round, I was surprised because he was so fast. But in the second round I take his head off.” 😂😂😂💯
Either ilia will become a long reigning champ or he would not be the same after this fight.
Josh Emmet gave him a hard day at the office.
Topuiria is one of my favorite fighters stylistically. Super dynamic and creative. Volk has the experience, though. Should be a good fight.
Holloway v Topuria would be dope.
Skills on skills.
What song is playing in the background of 2nd half of McGregor sniper left hand video
They didn't put him against max cause that would just fuck the division up yet again 😂
This aged really well!
Cant deny his prowess but i kinda hope Volk gives him a lesson in humility.
Ilia is a monster
Please correct it! You don't mentioned important bio moment before Germany and Spain.
Topuria was born in Halle Westfalen, Germany[7][8][9][10] to Georgian parents.[3] At the age of seven he moved to Georgia with his family where he started practicing Greco-Roman Wrestling at school.[3] At the age of 15 he moved to live in Alicante in Spain, where he started practicing martial arts at the Climent Club.[11] In 2015, he made his debut as a professional in local competitions
