Quick read
Merab Dvalishvili disclosed that he was offered a fight against Arman Tsarukyan at the recent RAF 08 event in Philadelphia, but declined the matchup. Dvalishvili explained that the fight made no sense as Tsarukyan competes two weight classes above him. He considered the offer initially but ultimately felt relieved he turned it down. After witnessing Tsarukyan's controversial actions against Urijah Faber at the event, where Arman threw Faber outside the mats, Dvalishvili was disappointed. While Dvalishvili expressed respect for Faber's contributions to the sport, he felt such behavior was unnecessary and validated his decision to decline the bout.
