Undefeated Ilia Topuria tests himself against veteran Josh Emmett at UFC Fight Night in Florida this weekend.
Emmett, 38, is coming off a loss at UFC 284 earlier this year and is in search of a victory to reinsert himself into the featherweight title conversation. The experienced American takes on 26-year-old Topuria, who last fought at UFC 282 in December, when he improved to 13-0 after submitting Bryce Mitchell in the second round.
The Georgian now has his sights on Emmett, who himself lost by submission in his most recent bout.
