"I saw an interview of him saying that, 'Bring the last 10 seconds to the first 10 seconds of the fight.' Which is, his fight IQ might not be there," Holloway recently told ESPN. "His athleticism and his power and strength is there but might be lacking in the strategy department." This reflects Holloway's skepticism about Topuria's ability to approach the fight intelligently, emphasizing that starting with all-out aggression could lead to vulnerabilities.
"If he's gonna bring the same energy he brings in the last 10 seconds of every round, when he [points his finger to the ground], I'm gonna knock him out in the first," Topuria asserted confidently in a recent statement. This remark showcases Topuria's strategy for the impending fight and highlights his willingness to capitalizing on Holloway's tendency to engage aggressively, especially towards the end of rounds.
