UFC double champion Ilia Topuria , who maintains a close relationship with big names in football, such as Sergio Ramos and Cristiano Ronaldo, celebrated Spain's title after the 1-0 victory over Argentina in the 2026 World Cup final, held last Sunday (19), in New Jersey (USA).
'El Matador' shared a photo alongside his son celebrating the Spanish national team's victory. The triumph marked Spain's second World Cup title, lifting the trophy again 16 years after their first win in 2010, when they also won the final 1-0 in extra time against the Netherlands.

Topuria's relationship with football has grown in recent years. In addition to his friendship with Sergio Ramos, the UFC champion maintains a close relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese star is even one of the shareholders of the WOW FC organization alongside the Spanish fighter.
"World Champions. Congratulations, team!", wrote 'El Matador' in a story posted on Instagram.
Even after his loss to Justin Gaethje at UFC White House last month, Topuria found a reason to celebrate outside the octagon. The champion followed Spain's victorious campaign and celebrated 'La Roja's' return to the top of world football.
