Ilia Topuria is ready to face Islam Makhachev at UFC White House next year. Topuria suggested that their potential fight would take place at 155 pounds. But the Georgian-Spaniard doesn't believe Makhachev will drop down a weight class.Topuria vacated his featherweight throne earlier this year to pursue a superfight with Makhachev. However, the Dagestani dismissed a matchup with the 28-year-old and announced his move to welterweight to pursue a second belt.As a result, Topuria captured the vacant lightweight title by viciously knocking out Charles Oliveira at UFC 317 last month. Notably, he became the 10th UFC two-division champion and the first fighter to achieve this feat undefeated.Championship Rounds recently took to X and shared a clip of The Nelk Boys' Kick stream with Topuria, who was asked about a superfight with Makhachev at the White House next year on July 4. For context, earlier this month, Donald Trump discussed his plans to organize a UFC event to celebrate America's 250th anniversary, which received the nod of UFC CEO Dana White.'El Matador' said:''Why not? I would love to fight in front of the United States of America. Yeah. I would love it. It's a year away...I don't care with him. Once you try to go up, you never want to come back. It's like... It's hell. I had to go through hell when I was cutting the weight in 145. And now that I decided to stay in 155, it's like two different worlds. I have been able to enjoy the whole process. I've been more happier.''Check out Ilia Topuria's comments below:Meanwhile, Makhachev is aiming to capture his second UFC belt by defeating reigning welterweight champion Jack Della Maddalena later this year at Madison Square Garden in New York.
