Merab
Dvalishvili needs to defend his title towards Petr Yan
subsequent.
Yan earned a shutout unanimous choice win over former flyweight
champ Deiveson
Figueiredo in the primary occasion at UFC
Macau on Saturday. Yan subsequently known as for a rematch
towards Dvalishvili, who beat him by way of unanimous choice in March
2023. Dvalishvili wasted no time in accepting the rematch towards
“No Mercy.” “The Machine” needs to defend his bantamweight strap
towards Yan at UFC 313 on March 18 on the T-Cellular Area in Las
Vegas.
“Nice battle Petr. I like your callout, and I like your respect,”
Dvalishvili stated in a video on social media. “Let’s go once more, after
two years. March 8, T Cellular. Let’s f—-ing go.”
Dvalishvili received the title with a unanimous choice win over Sean
O’Malley at UFC
306 this previous September. Whereas Umar
Nurmagomedov has since been calling Dvalishvili out, the
Georgian was as a substitute rallying for a rematch towards O’Malley.
In response to Dvalishvili, the undefeated Dagestani remains to be
undeserving of a title shot and can solely probably get one
as a result of he’s the cousin of the legendary Khabib
Nurmagomedov. Dvalishvili has now seemingly shifted focus to
Yan however stays adamant on not combating Nurmagomedov. Defending his
callout of Yan, Dvalishvili urged followers to look at the Russian’s
efficiency towards “Deus da Guerra” at UFC Macau earlier than leaping to
conclusions.
“Did you guys watch the total battle for Yan vs. Figueiredo?! I do know
numerous you guys in all probability missed it due to the time distinction
however it’s a should watch,” Dvalishvili wrote in a since deleted tweet.
“Make no feedback except you witnessed the work of Yan. He seemed
completely unstoppable.”
Nurmagomedov was not shocked by Dvalishvili’s callout.

Dvalishvili is at present on an 11-fight successful streak, 10 of which
have occurred at bantamweight. In the meantime, Yan went by means of a tough
patch after his title loss towards Aljamain
Sterling in 2021, dropping 4 of 5, albeit towards elite
competitors. Nevertheless, he has since bounced again with consecutive
wins over Yadong Track
and Figueiredo. Nurmagomedov has six UFC wins in as many outings,
essentially the most notable of which is a unanimous choice over Cory
Sandhagen this previous August.
