ANAHEIM, Calif. – Merab Dvalishvili just got done fighting and he’s already offering his service to return in less than a month.
The UFC bantamweight contender picked up the biggest win of his career Saturday when he beat former dual-champion Henry Cejudo with a unanimous decision at UFC 298. After the fight, UFC CEO Dana White said Dvalishvili (17-4 MMA, 10-2 UFC) is next in line to challenge for the title at 135 pounds.
Even though he’s got a title shot guaranteed and just fought, Dvalishvili is down to be a replacement opponent for the Sean O’Malley vs. Chito Vera title fight headlining UFC 299 on March 9.
