Veteran UFC commentator, Joe Rogan, has proposed a fighter that Ilia Topuria should face after his move to the lightweight division.
Rogan commented, “I don`t believe the fight between Makhachev and Topuria will happen. It makes me wonder about their plans for Ilia. I think a fight between Topuria and Oliveira would be interesting. Charles is a tall fighter, dangerous in all aspects of the game, and possesses a significant reach advantage. Lightweights are generally large, and Ilia is also a sizable lightweight,” as quoted by Middle Easy.
