Merab Dvalishvili aims to extend winning streak against Petr Yan in UFC 323

  • On Saturday, Merab Dvalishvili defends his bantamweight belt at UFC 323 and sounded confident about making weight in his fourth title match this year.
  • Their rematch traces to a March 11, 2023 non-title bout that Merab Dvalishvili won by unanimous decision after a weigh-in shove, with his last defeat long ago on April 21, 2018.
  • Dvalishvili enters on a long winning streak and is 21-4, and a win would tie him with Kamaru Usman for the third-longest UFC streak while Anderson Silva and Islam Makhachev hold 16 each.
  • Dvalishvili enters as a substantial favorite at BetMGM Sportsbook, with heavy betting interest as UFC’s last pay-per-view before moving to Paramount Plus.
  • Trash-Talk and bullying allegations have intensified the personal stakes, with Petr Yan saying Merab Dvalishvili skipped the Thailand reality-show coaching trip and sent Aljamain Sterling instead.
