The UFC is in favor of championing this because it will be financially beneficial for the organization. That’s why I’m ready to fight him next and accept that challenge, – writes UFC super lightweight champion Merab Dvalishvili.
Following his recent fight against Petr Yan, the athlete found himself in an unexpected situation. Initially believing that his opponent sought to congratulate him, he quickly realized that a challenge for another match was on the table instead. The following day, the UFC provided him with a contract for the new fight, creating a sense of pressure.
With only two months to prepare, he was set to face a strong, unrated fighter, leaving little room for rest or proper training. Despite his impressive record of nine consecutive victories and being ranked No. 1, he felt that his challenger, Umar, was fueled by ambition and a lack of respect. This situation heightened the intensity of the upcoming match, as he prepared to defend his ranking while dealing with the challenges of short notice and high stakes.
“Georgians, if you know this guy is wrong with me and he didn’t deserve to fight with me. However, because he is Khabib’s cousin, he also has a white coat, he is undefeated, he has financial support from the Arab sheikhs who sponsor the UFC, the UFC also supports him, and they met N2 to sit well in the ranking.
In short, the UFC wants to make him a champion, this because it will be financially beneficial for the organization. So I’m ready to fight him next and accept that challenge.
I will also teach you wisdom and respect…” – writes Dvalishvili.
