Ilia Topuria expressed disappointment in Paddy Pimblett's performance against Renato Moicano, stating he knew Pimblett was a poor fighter but didn't realize how bad. Topuria also clarified his plans regarding a potential move to welterweight to fight Islam Makhachev, confirming he would not be stripped of his featherweight title because he plans to continue defending that belt. Additionally, Jiri Prochazka discussed still being affected by his loss despite becoming a father, claiming he was at 40-50% power after injury and fought in sparring mode. Magomed Ankalaev (via Abdelaziz) called out Khalil Rountree, offering a striking masterclass.
