The Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, has been home to many unforgettable moments and fights. But there’s one moment in recent years that has left people talking and even earned a photo on the wall in the backstage of the arena.
That moment was two years ago, when Merab Dvalishvili went into the Octagon after his teammate Aljamain Sterling defended his belt against Henry Cejudo. There was a face off going down between Sterling and his future opponent Sean O’Malley, who sported a red jacket. As O’Malley went to take off the jacket, thinking he was handing it to security, Dvalishvili grabbed the jacket and started wearing it as his own.
