According to Setanta Sports’ Giorgi Kokiashvili, there were over 10,000 individuals collected to enjoy Dvalishvili accomplish his champion dream. Dvalishvili made his UFC launching in 2017 and after a set of losses, he hasn’t recalled considering that. The brand-new bantamweight king made it 11 straight wins with his success over O’Malley, including “Suga” to a hit list that consists of previous UFC champs Henry Cejudo, Petr Yan, and Jose Aldo.
Up next for Dvalishvili is probably unbeaten competitor Umar Nurmagomedov. Whenever that battle is reserved, anticipate Dvalishvili’s fans to as soon as again appear en masse.
