“You are a little kid.” Topuria in Russian turned to Makhachev

Former UFC champion in a half -lightweight weight of the Spanish fighter of Georgian descent Elijah Topuria called the Russian Islam Makhachev a “little kid”.

On Tuesday, UFC President Dane White announced that Makhachev released the title of lightweight champion and would conduct a fight for a waist in welterweight. The rival of the 33 -year -old Russian will be Jack della Maddalen. Topuria and 35 -year -old Brazilian Charles Oliveira will argue for a vacant belt in a light weight category.

Earlier, Makhachev in the dispute called Topuria “a talker from Spain with a beautiful hairstyle.”

– The difference between you and me is that I am a man, and you are a coward. I say and fight, and you say and hide. Run far away, leaving no traces. You are a little kid, ”Topuria wrote on social networks.

During his career in MMA, Topuria spent 16 battles and did not suffer a single defeat. It occupies the third line in the UFC in a fifty -lightweight rating.

Oliveira is a former UFC champion in lightweight, who lost a belt after a fight with Makhachev in October 2022. The Russian forced the Brazilian to surrender a pain. Oliveira has 35 victories and 10 defeats per career.
