Yesterday information appeared that Henry Cejudo And Merab Dvalishvili will fight at UFC 298. Today, the Georgian fighter confirmed the information that his next opponent will be the promotion’s ex-two-weight champion Cejudo.
“Yes, that was the UFC’s offer, and I agreed. I don’t know when we’ll fight, but I’m ready and I’m training every day. My arm still doesn't feel one hundred percent, but I'm sparring, hitting and fighting. So everything is ok. I never stop training. I respect all my opponents, and especially Henry Cejudo, he is a great champion and remains one despite his loss to Aljamain. It's a big test, although I don't think I need to be tested. I have a long streak of victories, I have defeated everyone who was put in front of me. And I deserve to fight for the title.”
