Between the Links: Is Alex Pereira or Ilia Topuria Fighter of the Year?

0

While some of the MMA year-end awards are easy to choose, others are not. In 2024, two UFC champions made compelling cases for Fighter of the Year — light heavyweight title holder Alex Pereira, and featherweight champion Ilia Topuria. While Pereira had one more win than Topuria this year, is that enough to earn “Poatan” the crown?

On an all-new edition of Between the Links, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck and José Youngs preview the site’s upcoming 2024 year-end awards, and give their rankings for Fighter of the Year, discuss whether or not Pereira or Topuria should win the award, along with Knockout of the Year, Fight of the Year, and Submission of the Year. Additionally, they’ll answer some listener questions about the fallout from UFC Tampa, the UFC’s massively successful year, and much more.
