Ilia Topuria expressed disappointment with Paddy Pimblett's performance against Justin Gaethje, stating he knew Pimblett was not a strong fighter but did not realize how poor he actually was. Topuria also revealed that if he moves up to welterweight to fight Islam Makhachev, he will not be stripped of his lightweight title, as he plans to continue defending the 155-pound belt. Additionally, Jiri Prochazka discussed his loss, saying he was operating at 40-50 percent capacity after an injury and was waiting for the referee to intervene. Magomed Ankalaev, through manager Ali Abdelaziz, called out Khalil Rountree, offering to give him a 25-minute striking masterclass if Rountree can last that long.
