Daniel Cormier warns Ilia Topuria that he may not get a title shot against UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev anytime soon, as Makhachev’s mentor, Khabib Nurmagomedov, insists Topuria must first defeat a top contender. Nurmagomedov emphasizes that Makhachev has a significant legacy to protect and won’t risk it against someone unproven at lightweight. Cormier concludes that Topuria’s aspirations may be unrealistic, as Makhachev and Nurmagomedov are clear about their priorities and won’t compromise on legacy for a fighter with limited experience.
