Merab Dvalishvili wants to secure a knockout when he runs it back with Petr Yan this weekend at UFC 323. Dvalishvili wants to be the first UFC champion to have successfully defended the belt four times in just twelve months. With that goal in mind, he will enter the octagon on Saturday night.
The Machine’ secured a unanimous decision victory at UFC 320 against Cory Sandhagen, and before that at UFC 316, he secured a submission victory in his rematch with Sean O’Malley. This time, he has even bigger plans against Yan.
