Ilia Topuria
22 | 5’6″ | Alicante, Spain | 8-0 | 8 Finishes | 1 KO/TKO, 8 Submissions (RNC, Guillotine, Triangle, Brabo Choke) | Combined Opponents’ Record: 24-9 | Best Win – Brian Bouland (7-1)
A product out of Spain, Ilia Topuria is no doubt someone, to watch. Topuria is a monster grappler and submission ace with all wins coming by submission. To get it to the mat he has solid wrestling, timing his shots perfectly. Glue-like on the mat he is great at sticking to the back and transitioning smoothly. Topuria is a tactical grappler with improving striking. He has good crisp hands but is still a bit green. Still a great prospect.
Topuria is currently signed with Brave CF but if he becomes available to sign, the UFC should be calling him up.
