Merab Dvalishvili predicts Topuria knockout over Tsarukyan, reflects on Yan loss

Merab Dvalishvili has shared his predictions and reflections on several fights. He stated that while he likes Arman Tsarukyan as a fighter, Ilia Topuria will defeat him, predicting that Tsarukyan will be unable to take Topuria down and will eventually be knocked out when attempting to box with him. Dvalishvili also reflected on his loss to Petr Yan, acknowledging that Yan specifically prepared for him and employed a unique, tough fighting style. He recalled being hurt badly by Yan's body kicks, particularly in the second instance when the pain was so severe he had to press forward rather than retreat. Dvalishvili suggested that on that particular day, he could have beaten everyone except Yan.
