Merab Dvalishvili shared his prediction for the potential matchup between Ilia Topuria and Arman Tsarukyan, stating that Topuria will defeat Tsarukyan. Dvalishvili believes Tsarukyan will be unable to take Topuria down and will get knocked out when he attempts to box with the featherweight champion. Regarding his own loss to Petr Yan, Dvalishvili explained that he could have beaten anyone that day except Yan, noting that Yan prepared specifically for him with a unique style. He described the pain from Yan's body kicks as so severe during one moment that he had to press forward into strikes because he couldn't escape.
