The victory, which came at 2 minutes and 27 seconds of the first round, surprised everyone present.

After the victory, the UFC quickly generated conversation about a possible match with Paddy Pimblett, present at the T-Mobile Arena. The rivalry between Topuria and Pimblett dates back to 2021, when tensions arose due to Pimblett’s comments on the 2008 Russo-Georgian war. Pimblett entered the cage to confront Topuria, who had previously expressed his desire to fight Pimblett in his first title defense, preferably in Las Vegas.

Topuria managed to defend himself from Oliveira’s attempts to take him to the ground, even when Oliveira managed to take him down, Topuria reversed the position and ended up on top of the submission specialist. This victory solidifies Topuria’s impressive trajectory, who has knocked out three major figures, including former featherweight champions Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway. In addition to Pimblett, Topuria has set his sights on former lightweight champion Islam Makhachev, who vacated his belt last month.
