Merab Dvalishvili believes his fight with Petr Yan will take place at UFC 330 in August. Since Yan holds the belt, Dvalishvili noted that Yan gets to decide when he wants to return to competition. The Georgian contender appears optimistic about the timing, suggesting it would be ideal to have the fight on the same card as Islam Makhachev's title defense. No official announcement has been made confirming the matchup or date.
