Ilia Topuria calls for Justin Gaethje rematch as he breaks silence on brutal beatdown

In June, Topuria suffered a brutal beatdown at the hands of Gaethje , losing his lightweight title in the main event of the UFC’s historic White House show . It marked the first defeat of Topuria’s 18-fight professional career and a harrowing experience that left the former two-division champion’s face completely unrecognisable .
