Yair Rodriguez is not a fan of the new featherweight world champion, Ilia Topuria.
Rodriguez — who came up short of trading in his interim title for undisputed gold against Alexander Volkanovski in July — sounded just a little bit bitter when asked about Topuria’s title-winning performance against ‘The Great’ during his appearance at the UFC Mexico City media event on Wednesday.
“He did it,” Rodriguez said. “He said he was going to do it and he did it. I don’t have much to say about that.
“I would love to f*ck him up,” he continued.
