Ilia Topuria reveals feedback his son gave him after vicious KO over Charles Oliveira 

Ilia Topuria has shared what his son, Hugo, said to him moments after his fight at UFC 317. Topuria revealed that Hugo questioned why he didn't use an uppercut during the match.

'El Matador' became a two-division champion by defeating Charles Oliveira at UFC 317. Just two minutes into the fight, Topuria lived up to his promise by knocking out the Brazilian with a powerful right hook.

During the post-fight press conference, Topuria was asked about Hugo, who had gained attention throughout fight week for his pad work. In response, the newly crowned UFC lightweight champion recounted his conversation with his son, saying:

"Do you know the first thing he told me when I came out of the octagon? [Topuria's son said] 'Why you connect the right punch like this? And you didn't did the uppercut?' I'm like, 'Oh okay, next time we will try it."
