Definitely Conor. Ilia takes hits. He took a lot from Alex Volkanovski and from Charles Oliveira. Not so much from Max Holloway, but even Oliveira caught him. If Conor landed, Ilia would fall. And Conor would land it.
In April 2025 Topuria said he would not be opposed to meeting McGregor in the octagon. Ilia’s record stands at 17 wins and no losses. Conor’s record is 22 wins and six losses.
