That Ilya Teporey was talking about Islam Mahachev. Basically, words to the effect of, Islam isn't a big enough star. Maybe if he continues to win a few more times, but he likes Sean O'Malley, what are your thoughts on that statement?
I heard Max Holloway talking about Ilya Teporey, and I agreed with him. I understand Teporeo in his mindset and where he's at mentally. But I feel like you got to keep winning. To say that Islam isn't a big enough star is crazy. I don't think that Sean O'Malley is a larger star. Maybe he's more popular in America. If I was a champion financially, I'm going to pick Islam every single time. I mean, I get it. In his mind, he's building something big. And listen, he's super popular and a big enough draw on his own. If someone needs to win more fights to become a bigger star, I think it's him.
Teporeo won the belt in February. Hollowway just won.
It's Teporea. I've never known Max Holloway to be a bullshitter. Sounds like Teporea is the one that hasn't been accepting fights.
I don't think Teporea is the type of guy that's going to be ducking people. He's being a smart businessman.
