Update:

Ilia Topuria keeps breaking records, and not just in the Octagon. The reigning UFC featherweight champion has now added another milestone to his resume: his collectible card is officially one of the most sought-after among fight fans.

Auction house Goldin announced that a 2022 Black Rookie Prism 1/1 card featuring Topuria sold in a private auction for $101,000, setting a new all-time record for a UFC trading card.

That price eclipses the previous high mark set by another undefeated UFC icon — Khabib Nurmagomedov — whose 2014 Knockout Autograph 1/1 sold for nearly $80,000. The sale is just the latest sign of Topuria’s skyrocketing popularity among UFC fans… and collectors alike.
