Jorge Clement, trainer of former UFC featherweight champion Ilia Topuria, has shared his thoughts on a potential matchup between his fighter and lightweight titleholder Islam Makhachev.

Clement told Submission Radio, “I am really hoping this fight will happen. It`s a significant fight. I am not sure about Ilia`s exact plans, or what he truly wants. I would be disappointed if this fight doesn`t come to fruition because I believe it represents a positive path forward for Ilia.”
