Ilia Topuria expressed disappointment with Paddy Pimblett's performance against Gaethje, stating he knew Pimblett was a poor fighter but didn't realize the extent. Topuria also clarified that if he moves up to welterweight to fight Islam Makhachev, he will not be stripped of his featherweight title, as he plans to continue defending the lightweight belt. Jiri Prochazka discussed his loss, saying he was operating at 40-50% capacity after injury and was in sparring mode, expecting the referee to stop the fight. Magomed Ankalaev (through Abdel Aziz) challenged Khalil Rountree, suggesting Rountree's wrestling training with Khamzat Chimaev is unnecessary and proposing a 25-minute striking masterclass. UFC also announced several matchups for hardcore fans, including a difficult fight for Cory Sandhagen against Batista instead of O'Malley.
