It’s been a whirlwind week for Ilia Topuria. He has become an even greater star in Spain, he’s one of the most dangerous fighters on the planet, and he seems to be getting better and better every time he steps in the cage. Plus, at the age of just 27, it feels as if we haven’t even scratched the surface of what’s possible with his upper-bound limit yet.
Do you agree with Ilia Topuria debuting at 5th place in the UFC pound-for-pound rankings? If not, where do you think he should’ve been placed? Should he give Alexander Volkanovski an immediate rematch or focus on a new challenger? Let us know, BJPENN Nation!
