Ilia Topuria is changing things up ahead of his bid to win a second divisional UFC title.
A person with knowledge of the situation confirmed to MMA Fighting that the former featherweight champion has parted ways with longtime coaches Jorge and Augustin Climent ahead of his vacant lightweight championship headliner against Charles Oliveira at UFC 317 on June 28.
Marca was first to report the news.
It’s important to note both sides are parting on great terms, and the move is being made from a logistical standpoint. Busy schedules and living in different cities have made it more difficult to maintain things the way they were in the past, but there is absolutely no ill will on either side, per a person with knowledge of the situation.
