Capturing the bantamweight championship after an utterly dominant run as a top contender for several years, Merab Dvalishvili has embarked on one of the most exciting title stints in UFC history. Gaining the strap late last year, the Georgian has made three spectacular outings across 2025 so far, resulting in a trio of superb title defenses over some of the best competition on the planet. Currently scheduled to throw down with old foe Petr Yan next weekend, he is aiming to fully cement his place as not just the greatest 135-lb athlete on the roster, but in the entire sport’s history.
