Emmett was a really tough figther and was going to kill Topuria until Ilia fucked him up and Emmett magically became an old man who needed to retire because he was useless. Volkanovski was a dinosaur, a legend that Ilia was never going to beat, until Ilia brutally knock him out in the second round and he again became an old man who needed to retire. What will be the excuse if Ilia beats Makhachev?

@ProtomanButCallMeBlues

Umar would be the better match up to get out of the way first, while Merab is a bit of a rougher one who is essentially a better Aljo . His best case for the title is beating Umar first, and then Merab looses to Chito/Sean and Cory can put away Chito/Sean. Worst case is he beats Merab and has to fight a champion Umar because Sean is probably not beating Umar, and Chito is absolutely not beating Umar.
