Quick read
Merab Dvalishvili shared his thoughts on several topics in a recent interview. He praised Arman Tsarukyan as a great fighter but predicted that Ilia Topuria would defeat him by knockout after Tsarukyan fails to secure takedowns and attempts to box with Topuria. Reflecting on his own loss to Petr Yan, Dvalishvili admitted that on that day he could have beaten anyone except Yan, who had prepared specifically for him with a unique style. He described the pain from Yan's body kicks as excruciating, forcing him to press forward rather than retreat. Dvalishvili also noted that Conor McGregor has paid compensation to Artem Lobov for his contribution to creating Proper Twelve whiskey, though the amount was not disclosed.
