A legend of the UFC surrenders to Topuria: “It has incredible hands”

The irruption of Ilyia Topuria in the UFC has caused a multitude of legends of the company to give up the ‘legend’ skills, which has not stopped silent to its detractors based on completions and performances that will put it in the company’s hall of the company. The to comment on Ilia’s talent has been Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson, former champion of the Samipesado Weight of the UFC and one of the most fearsome glueders that have risen to an octagon.

“Topuria excites me because I saw him fight and he has incredible hands. I saw some of his combos and planned to do that at Rashad Evans,” he acknowledged in ‘Jaxxon Podcast’. The rivalry between Evans and Jackson was one of the most fierce of the semi -marked weight, and it was Rashad who won Jackson by unanimous decision. Having an elite striking, the American has undone in praise against Topuria, who despite starting his career focusing on the fight has been developing his style until he becomes a great fight.

QUINTON ‘RAMPAGE’ Jackson, former champion of the semi -marked weight of the UFC

Jackson accumulated 17 kos throughout his career, while Topuria has six. Of course, the Hispanogeorgiano adds eight other submissions, and seven of them in their seven fights. In fact, of the 19 victories of Topuria, only two have gone to a decision, showing that Ilyia is one of the most entertaining fighters to see the entire company.

‘Rampage’, one of the great personalities of the UFC

That a legend like ‘ramp’ says that of Topuria says a lot about Ilia media growth since he got the featherweight belt in February 2024 against Alexander Volkanovski. Jackson has a podcast where he talks about all the actuality that surrounds the MMA, and is quite successful due to how the Discolo it is. The American does not have hairs on his tongue, just as he passed him his fighter stage.

Once I had a rivalry with someone, ‘ramp’ had no filter. His moment breaking a door to punches in ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ is already a history of the UFC, just like his fight for the belt against Jon Jones in which ‘Bones’ He left his knees forever with oblique kicks. That a guy as recognized as he thinks that way on Topuria is only another sample of Ilia’s media power, which on June 28 will try to get the lightweight belt to become a double champion.
