Merab Dvalishvili predicts Topuria knockout over Tsarukyan

Merab Dvalishvili stated that while he likes Arman Tsarukyan and considers him a wonderful fighter, Ilia Topuria will defeat him. Dvalishvili believes Tsarukyan won't be able to take Topuria down and will get knocked out when he tries to box with him. Dvalishvili also reflected on his own loss to Petr Yan, saying Yan prepared specifically for him and has a unique style. He mentioned that Yan's body kicks were extremely painful, forcing him to push forward into strikes rather than retreat. Separately, the post notes that Conor McGregor has compensated Artem Lobov for his contribution to Proper Twelve whiskey, though the exact amount remains undisclosed.
