Despite being a significant underdog, Merab Dvalishvili not only defeated Petr Yan in the UFC main event in Las Vegas, but also beat the former bantamweight champion. With a title claim in the game and close friend and training partner Aljamain Sterling holding the 135-pound title, where does Saturday’s win put The Machine in the championship discussion?
Mike Heck and MMA Fighting’s Jed Meshew react to Dvalishvili’s dominant performance against Jan, what could be next for both guys, and the unexpected change in momentum in Jan’s career over the last couple of years.
In addition, they discuss the quick stoppage of Alexander Romanov by Alexander Volkov, the submission of Ryan Spann by Nikita Krylov in the first round, the sensational finishes of Bruno Silva and Davey Grant in the preliminary fights, and much more.
