Dvalishvili Expresses Readiness to Fight Sandhagen

Merab Dvalishvili, the reigning UFC champion in the bantamweight division, has indicated his willingness to step into the octagon against Cory Sandhagen.

“I want to stay active. I`d be happy to have three fights this year. Cory Sandhagen seems very eager to face me, and he`s a truly worthy contender. He`s competed against all the top names in the division, and his skill level is undeniably high – everyone knows that. I see no issue fighting Cory after my potential bout with Sean. Following that, my aim is to compete again towards the end of the year, perhaps in New York or Las Vegas, which has become my home base.”
