Merab Dvalishvili, a top fighter in the UFC bantamweight division, told how famous billionaire Mark Zuckerberg “seconded” him at UFC 298 during his fight with Cejudo.
“Mark and I became friends through social media. He supported me and we sent each other positive messages. A couple of days ago he wrote to me that he would be at the tournament and asked me not to tell anyone about it. Naturally, I kept everything a secret. Already at the tournament we met, and I said that I was glad to meet him personally.
As the fight progressed, he gave me hints and shouted “30 seconds left.” In general, Mark was my fourth second. When I performed the choke on Cejudo, I looked at Zuckerberg and had fun,” said the Georgian fighter.
