Watch Merab Dvalishvili lose it on UFC 308 fan who suggests he's ducking Umar Nurmagomedov
ABU DHABI – Think Merab Dvalishvili is getting tired already of this Umar Nurmagomedov storyline?
Just a couple days after he told MMA Junkie there was method to his madness behind the idea that he could rematch former champ Sean O'Malley next month, but not Nurmagomedov a month later, a fan put him on blast at a Q&A session ahead of Friday's UFC 308 ceremonial weigh-ins in Abu Dhabi.
The fan wanted to know if new bantamweight titleholder Dvalishvili (18-4 MMA, 11-2 UFC), who dominated O'Malley (18-2 MMA, 10-2 UFC) at UFC 306 in September in September is ducking Nurmagomedov (18-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC).
And Dvalishvili makes his case pretty clear that not only does he think it makes sense to delay a Nurmagomedov fight – but that he might not even be the next worthy challenger, anyway.
Check out the tense exchange above.
