UFC star Israel Adesanya has released a video of him reacting to Alexander Volkanovski’s loss to Ilia Topuria.
On Saturday night, Ilia Topuria became the new UFC featherweight champion. He did so by knocking out Alexander Volkanovski, fulfilling the prophecy he set out for himself. The Georgian-Spaniard looked calm, cool and collected as he overcame adversity to defeat ‘The Great’ and claim the title.
