Merab predicts Topuria will KO Tsarukyan; McGregor settles with Lobov

Merab Dvalishvili stated that while he likes Arman Tsarukyan as a fighter, he believes Ilia Topuria will defeat him. Merab predicts Tsarukyan will fail to take Topuria down and will be knocked out when he tries to box with Ilia. Separately, Conor McGregor has paid compensation to Artem Lobov for his unpaid contribution to the creation of the Proper Twelve whiskey brand. The exact amount was not disclosed, but Lobov is reportedly satisfied with the settlement. Merab also reflected on his fight with Petr Yan, noting that Yan's body kicks caused significant pain and forced him to pressure forward rather than escape.
