Off the back of his stellar win over Sean O’Malley tonight, Merab Dvalishvili has welcomed the chance to defend his title against perennial contender, Cory Sandhagen next after another dominant victory at UFC 316.
Dvalishvili, who rematched former champion, O’Malley tonight following their Noche UFC showdown in September of last year, would defend his divisional crown for the second time tonight.
Fresh from a dominant unanimous decision win over the previously unbeaten, Umar Nurmagomedov back in January, Dvalishvili returned tonight in search of a definitive victory over O’Malley.
