Merab Dvalishvili: Topuria will knock out Tsarukyan, Yan prepared specially for me

Merab Dvalishvili shared his predictions and reflections on recent fights. He believes Ilia Topuria will defeat Arman Tsarukyan, stating that Tsarukyan won't be able to take Topuria down and will be knocked out when he tries to box with him. Reflecting on his title fight with Petr Yan, Dvalishvili admitted that Yan was the only fighter who could have beaten him that night, noting Yan's unique style and painful body kicks. Dvalishvili said the body kicks hurt so badly in the second instance that he had to rush forward into strikes because he couldn't retreat.
