      He knows he can go all out on the inside because 1. He knows his boxing is unmatched in this division. 2 he's been wrestling and training judo since he's 5. In his mind and it's understandable he's the best on the ground and on the feet. He hasn't lost yet and at the age of 27 he beat the best two all time greats of the division as he predicted. Of course he believes everthing he says. It's nice to witness grateness. Some people are made for bigger things and they often know it and don't stop until they're where they supposed to be. Salute

    Topuria is successful because he is really defensively responsible (except when he throws winging hooks from time to time) plus he has hands of stone for the counters. That is a deadly combo in MMA.

      @ppvplug3940 nah its not just better striking it's how well a pro boxer with a strong grappling background would perform. In boxing you have the least limbs allowed to strike with thus increasing your combo and depth of striking iq. Ilia is able to get in and out quickly while having high number combos to back it. That's why he's so confident

      @@BoogeymanIX i mean Max headkicked Volk once but Volk has his guard down for headkicks and just puts up 1 hand.
      Ilia has a high guard, and as we saw his chin is still protected when he defends the body.
      Also in order for max to land punches on the body of ilia he literally has to squat down for it.
      So body fakes from Max aren't that beliveable i think.
