Merab Dvalishvili can submit any opponent in the cage, but there is one battle he decided to walk away from.
The UFC’s Georgian bantamweight champion confessed in an interview that he is no longer looking for a partner. “I really have tried, but it’s too difficult”, he said.
“I don’t think girls want to start a family these days”, he added. A confession that contrasts with the image of the unbeatable fighter everyone knows in the octagon.
Away from the cameras and the belts, Merab is just a man who wants the same thing as many others: someone with whom to build a home. And sometimes, not even all the talent in the world is enough to win that fight.
