The manager of Ilia Topuria has once again addressed the ongoing confusion surrounding a potential bout with Islam Makhachev. In a statement, the manager told whoever runs Makhachev's account to "stop talking nonsense," and confirmed that after the White House event, they will continue pursuing the fight and the money associated with it. The clarification comes amid back-and-forth speculation about whether negotiations for the matchup are progressing or stalled. The manager's comments suggest that Topuria's team remains interested in making the fight happen despite apparent communication issues. Observers have noted that there appears to be a lack of transparency from both sides regarding the true status of the potential superfight.
