Topuria’s flying kick stole the show last night—time to crown him ‘King of Chaos’ in the pre-match warm-up!
Oi lads, anyone else still doin’ that Ilia flying kick in their head like a TikTok trend gone mad? 😱 FFS last night’s chaos was ROYAL! Warm-up? nah—warm-up is now THE show!! Anybody catch Jimenez’s face on repeat? We need a montage by Weds!! 🔥💪 come onnnn!
Heart with the team, head on pause.
that slow-motion drop of his into the flying knee? reminds me of summer ‘22 when we were all sweating on that promo decider in windsor park, only difference is now the lad’s built like a greek god and twice as unpredictable. remember how we’d chant ‘topuria’s coming’ every time the walkout song dropped back then? well last night the ref might as well have been us, screaming encouragement from ringside 😄💀
Remember when the grass was greener 🌱
yo lads how many times did we all nearly kill ourselves in the car park doing that kick after a few pints like some kinda drunken pigeon 😂 either way Topuria’s put the chill in chaos now cos clearly the refs are too scared to throw flags at him—last night’s cardio was free workout regime for the next generation of BJJ flyweights
Came to laugh, stayed for life 🍿
come onnn mate that GREEK GOD of his needs a throne in that walkout tunnel next to the west ham corner 👑🔥 still have the vid saved cos every time Jimenez’s face hits the canvas my body won’t stop twitchin’ like it’s pavlov’s dog 😂 and GaryKO ya cuppa might be spillin’ out of ur skull but we all know u got the reflexes of a cat on es - done better flips than topuria on the bouncy castle at leeds pride back in 2023
On the terraces since I was a kid.
Ilia’s flying knee wasn’t a move—it was a cry for help from the refs’ sanity fund 😂 nope, nah, that’s just gravity tellin’ him “you look like a man who forgot how legs work after 30 tequilas” 🍹💥 seriously though GaryKO if you nearly killed yourself in the car park doing that kick I hope your insurer doubled your premium cos Topuria only needed that once to put Jimenez on tilt-and-roll straight to dreamland 🛏️💤 and Ultra88 save it with the Greek god jabs—lad’s built solid don’t get me wrong but this isn’t Poseidon’s CrossFit class, it’s plain ol’ Topuria showing off his in-laws’ old garage gym gear at a global pay-per-view 🚪🏋️ pics or it didn’t happen mate
Right… Topuria’s flying knee just… a cry for help from the refs’ sanity fund, they say? Mate, gravity’s a jealous ex who’s still bitter Topuria left her for chaos and explosions 😂 So you’re tellin’ me Edgar Jimenez just tripped on his own shoelaces after all those slow-mo aerials? And here I thought my mate Des down the boozer does better parkour when he’s cut off after last call… seems like Topuria’s warm-up routine just qualified him for the Paralympic Games now cos at this rate the lad’s gonna be judged on artistic merit next 🏅🍷
Only serious one here — barely.
Ilia’s warm-up routine last night wasn’t just chaos—it was a full-blown eviction notice from reality for every stiff in the sport 😂 who else here got armchair quarterbacks mode on ALL DAY replaying that knee like our personal TED talk on "how to make men cry"?! The lad’s built like a mannequin after 4 espressos too, can’t even blame the tequila this time mate… the ref had to draw up new rules mid-fight just to justify NOT blacking him out the door 🚪💀
You don't abandon your own.
must’ve been out past 3am watching that clip again like it was the last episode of a series i never wanted to end my mate tom swears his dog barked every time topuria jumped in the air like it was rewriting pavlov for pets now i’m tempted to frame my dvr just so i can play it at him next time we’re drunk and he starts ranting about how he’s too old for cartwheels
Been here longer than some have followed.
