🚨BREAKING: According to a source close to the family, Aleksandre Topuria has officially kicked off his training camp for his highly anticipated return, scheduled for this coming November. Aleksandre was last seen in action late last year when he earned a hard-fought unanimous decision victory over Bekzat Almakhan on the Tsarukyan vs. Hooker fight card.

Aleksandre Topuria has begun preparations for a November return to the octagon, according to a source close to the family, with the Georgian bantamweight looking to build on the momentum of a strong recent stretch.
Topuria, nicknamed "El Conquistador," most recently competed late last year on the Tsarukyan vs. Hooker card, where he earned a hard-fought unanimous decision over Bekzat Almakhan. That result extended his winning streak to five consecutive fights and pushed his professional record to 7-1. The 30-year-old trains out of Climent Club and carries a well-rounded profile in the 135-pound division, landing 2.93 significant strikes per minute at an accuracy rate of 55 percent while also averaging 1.5 takedowns per 15 minutes. His orthodox stance and a 68-inch reach round out a compact, technically sound physical frame at five-foot-seven.
No opponent has been named for the November bout at this stage.
Why it matters
- A sixth straight win would make Topuria one of the more compelling rising names in a deep bantamweight division
- His blend of above-average striking accuracy and takedown activity gives him stylistic flexibility against a range of opponents
- The timeline — a November camp kickoff reported in early September — suggests the fight is in at least preliminary stages of planning, though no booking has been confirmed
