ILIA TOPURIA doesn’t know if Sergio Ramos will be cheering him on at UFC 317 after being GHOSTED by the Real Madrid legend.
Former Los Blancos and Spain star Ramos has attended two of Topuria’s last three fights.
He had one of the best seats in the house for the Georgian-born Spaniard’s incredible KO of Max Holloway at UFC 308 last November.
Footie and MMA fans expected Ramos to be in the stands for Topuria’s lightweight title tilt against Charles Oliveira on Sunday morning as he’s currently stateside with his Monterrey FC team-mates for the Club World Cup.
But Topuria is currently in the dark over Ramos’ attendance after being brutally left on read by his pal.
When asked about Ramos attending the fight, he told Ariel Helwani: “I don’t know I haven’t spoken to him in a long time.
“Actually, I texted him and he didn’t answer me.
“He’s my boy, but he didn’t even answer me.”
Topuria, 28, will bid to become the tenth two-division champion in UFC history in his vacant lightweight title clash with fan favourite Oliveira in the main event of UFC 317.

And he plans to join the illustrious group in devastating and viral fashion.
He said: “Charles is a great fighter.
“I’d say he’s a legendary fighter, one of the few still active in the UFC.
“But the truth is that his style fits perfectly with mine to put him to sleep in the first round.
“Because he has no mobility, he doesn’t move.”
