Ilia Topuria becomes UFC’s new pound-for-pound king, overtaking Islam Makhachev after a stunning UFC 317 knockout victory.

Concluding International Fight Week in the main event, Topuria knocked out Charles Oliveira to win the vacant lightweight title and succeed Islam Makhachev in the weight class. In addition to making ‘El Matador’ the latest two-division UFC champion, that result also put the pound-for-pound crown in the Spaniard’s possession for the very first time.
