Even though he lost, the destroyer of the Nurmagomedov clan, Merab Dvalishvili, still praised his opponent at UFC 323, Petr Yan.

JUARA.NET – The destroyer of the Nurmagomedov clan, Merab Dvalishvili, was praised by his opponent at UFC 323, Petr Yan.

Yan highlighted how invulnerable Dvalishvili was during yesterday’s fight.

Throughout the duel, Yan felt that he had unleashed hard blows.

He was sure that the energy of his blow at that time was enough to make other people faint.

In the end, Yan could only give credit to Dvalishvili.

Unfortunately, just surviving a hard blow still couldn’t make Dvalishvili win.

The fighter nicknamed The Machine was declared outnumbered after dueling five full rounds.

This defeat forced him to give up his bantamweight throne.

“Merab is a strong fighter,” he said, as reported by Juara.net from Championat.
