UFC Lightweight Champion Ilia Topuria has talked up a future fight with UFC Welterweight Champion Islam Makhachev once he has defended his belt against the winner of Justin Gaethje Vs. Paddy Pimblett. After Topuria vacated his featherweight belt to move up in weight, he captured the vacant lightweight title at UFC 317 in June with a first-round knockout of Charles Oliveira.
