Ilia Topuria The Ultimate Fighter: 2025 Topps Knockout UFC
We have catalogued 8 versions of Ilia Topuria's The Ultimate Fighter #UF-9, the twenty-name insert in 2025 Topps Knockout UFC. 8 have a photo of the actual copy.
The Ultimate Fighter is a 20-card insert in 2025 Topps Knockout UFC with champions from several eras: Max Holloway, Alex Pereira, Islam Makhachev, Conor McGregor, Jon Jones, Khabib Nurmagomedov and Georges St-Pierre. Ilia Topuria is #UF-9, per the official Topps checklist.
Design: vertical, in green tones, with a large black-and-white portrait of his face in the background and Ilia Topuria full-length in front.
Back: it says that when he joined UFC all he needed was experience and that, after a little over three years unbeaten, he earned the title shot against Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 298, which he won by second-round KO/TKO. It calls him Ilia “El Matador” Topuria.
Weight class: “Lightweight”, even though the text is about the featherweight title.
Which box it comes from and how often
Knockout is a Hobby-only product. The official odds sheet puts The Ultimate Fighter at 1:7 packs.
Boxes of 4 packs of 8 cards, with 3 autographs and 1 relic, released 24 October 2025, per Checklist Insider, a secondary source.
With 20 names, Ilia Topuria's UF-9 turns up on average once every 140 packs, about 35 boxes. That is our estimate, assuming an even split among the twenty.
Same ladder as Knockout Artists, his other 2025 Knockout insert; The Ultimate Fighter is a little harder per pack, but with fewer names the UF-9 falls almost as often as the KA-21.
