Merab Dvalishvili was involved in an altercation with a fan at UFC 310, shortly after his teammate Aljamain Sterling‘s loss, although it’s unclear how physically involved he was, and this incident follows a similar confrontation before his previous fight.
Merab Dvalishvili? Yeah, he’s always ready to throw down. Even a month out from his first UFC title defense, he’s already making headlines.
At UFC 310, things got a bit heated. Dvalishvili found himself in a scuffle with a fan at T-Mobile Arena. It all went down after his buddy Aljamain Sterling lost a decision to Movsar Evloev. Talk about a rough night.
Caught on camera! There’s a clip showing Dvalishvili being pulled away from an audience member. But how involved did he get? Hard to tell from the footage floating around online.
Interestingly, it’s not clear what kicked off the altercation. But soon after, one of Dvalishvili’s associates was seen trading punches with the fan. Drama much?
This isn’t Merab’s first rodeo with fan confrontations. Remember UFC 306? He had a run-in with Sean O’Malley’s supporters back in September. Seems like trouble follows him.
And O’Malley? He didn’t miss a beat, posting on social media: “Merab only throws hands with fans in the stands.” Classic O’Malley move.
But let’s not forget the real challenge ahead. January 18 is looming large for Dvalishvili as he prepares to defend his title against Umar Nurmagomedov at UFC 311. Now that’s gonna be a fight to watch!
