After four intense rounds, it was up to the team of Ilia Topuria to end the duel for the lightweight belt (up to 70,3 kg) and seal the victory of Justin gaethje.
The Georgian/Spanish player was ahead of the corner. Alexander Topuria, also a UFC fighter and responsible for his younger brother's training for many years.
