Ilia Topuria has a bold prediction for his first UFC championship fight.
The undefeated featherweight contender sees himself not only dethroning champion Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 298, but also finishing him – and in the first round. Volkanovski has yet to lose at 145 pounds in his 10-year career as a professional MMA fighter. Yet Topuria (14-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) is certain he will get the job done against Volkanovski (26-3 MMA, 13-2 UFC) come Feb. 17.
