Ilia Topuria’s dominance was so thorough, one judge gave him a 10-7 scorecard as part of his unanimous decision over Josh Emmett at UFC Jacksonville.
Fighters were almost as impressed with Emmett’s heart as much as Topuria’s dominance as the Team Alpha Male regular hung in through a five-round shellacking in the main event of Saturday’s event at VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena.
Here’s what fighters had to say about Emmett vs. Topuria and other main card fights on Saturday night.
Wow what a performance form Ilia Toupuria!! This guy is gonna challenge for a belt in the not too distant future

Justin Tafa… I apologize. Not how I wanted it to go down. That shit is on me and I hope your eye is alright.
To the city I call home. The energy you gave me as I was walking out will be something I’ll remember the rest of my life. I’m sorry I couldn’t give you show.
