The recent UFC world champion Ilia Topuria has disclosed the details of his chat with Florentino Pérez, which took place on Sunday prior to Real Madrid's match against Sevilla at the Santiago Bernabéu. The man from Alicante was invited to take the kickoff before the game, but apart from that, the president also gave him a shirt, which allowed them to speak briefly. Topuria claims that Florentino gave him the assurance that the White Coliseum would host a UFC evening this year.

"We are going to bring the show here," the white president stated to Ilia Topuria, as revealed by the fighter. "Florentino congratulated me and gave me a t-shirt. He is 100% committed to the UFC at the Bernabéu. He is a visionary; we all know it," commented the Hispanic-Georgian, who dated the event to "October or November." However, he was not able to get any information about the soap opera of Real Madrid. "He didn't tell me anything about Mbappé," he said with a half-smile.

Furthermore, Topuria confirmed that he also had contact with the white players. "I have met practically everyone, and the truth is that they were super nice and very friendly." Regarding the kick-off, the fighter noted that “it was a wonderful experience to receive all the applause and do the kick-off. There have been unique moments that life has given me and that will remain in my memory."
