UFC 298: Ilia Topuria vs. Volkanovski Pre-Fight Press Conference (VIDEO)
UFC 298 is set to go down this weekend, which means the pre-fight press conference will be alive and kicking.
Ilia Topuria has been quite brash going into his first UFC title fight, and he isn't likely to let up during tonight's presser. He will challenge Alex Volkanovski for the UFC Featherweight Championship this Saturday night inside the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.
That's not all on the table for the press conference and this weekend's card.
Also set for tonight's press event will be the UFC 298 co-headliners Robert Whittaker and Paulo Costa. This fight has massive implications in the 185-pound division. Plus, bitter rivals Ian Machado Garry and Geoff Neal are also scheduled to be a part of the presser. Despite the bad blood, these two have shown some mutual respect as of late, so it'll be interesting to see what goes down between them at the presser.
UFC play-by-play ace Jon Anik is set to be the host of the press conference, and security will also be there to ensure the fighters don't get physical before fight night.
Easier said than done.
