Ramazan Ismailov, brother and trainer of Magomed Ismailov, named the fighter Meraba Dvalishvili an uncomfortable opponent for the Russian Petra Yana and also said that for the Russian this fight will be important.
The fight between Yan and Dvalishvili is scheduled for March 11, 2023 in Las Vegas as part of the UFC Fight Night 221 tournament.
– I think Dvalishvili is an uncomfortable opponent. He fights well, aggressor, tempovik. I think Merab is even more uncomfortable than O’Malley. This is a contest of candidates and a defining moment in Petr’s career right now. In fact, Yang has only lost one fight – a rematch with Sterling. O’Malley, he didn’t lose. Jan has a black streak, but it’s a good opportunity to come back and show his championship ambitions.
– Fight Nights champion Dmitry Bikrev said that Dvalishvili cannot be called an uncomfortable opponent, because he does not surpass Jan in anthropometry and will not be able to hold him down, and Peter Meraba will smash him in a standing position.
– I think so too. If Dvalishvili can’t force a fight, then Jan will have a standing advantage. If Jan works on wrestling and defending, if he doesn’t let Merab control himself like Sterling did, then there’s every chance, Ismailov said as quoted by RB Sport.
