Hello, UFC fans - and welcome to my crib
"El Matador" is all about keeping his body in tip-top condition.
Ilia Topuria makes his highly anticipated first Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Featherweight title defense at UFC 308 this weekend (Sat., Oct. 26, 2024) against Max Holloway from inside Etihad Arena on "Fight Island" in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
Yesterday, the promotion released "UFC 308 Countdown" before the epic showdown (watch here). During the video, Topuria showed off his insane custom-made high-tech gym inside his home in Madrid, Spain.
The gym includes a hyperbaric recovery chamber, a cryotherapy chamber, and a very nice mat space with heavy bags. While some UFC athletes have hyperbaric chambers nowadays, the undefeated fighter has a team of nutritionists and doctors who monitor him.
Check out his setup below:

"For me, the recovery process is very important," Topuira said. "I'm able to prevent injuries, and I don't have to cure them. I set up everything here. I have the recovery room, I have my boxing trained, the grappling, the wrestling. I surround myself with great professionals who are a part of my team."
