Let us remind you that in the main event of the UFC 298 tournament, held on February 18 in Anaheim, USA, Topuria knocked out Alexandra Volkanovski in the second round. Dvalishvili confidently won on points against Henry Cejudo in the same event.
“Today is a historic moment for Georgia. The whole country was awake, everyone got up very early, made reservations in restaurants, watched the tournament in the stadiums. And now people are celebrating in the streets.
Many Georgians came to the tournament, our flags were everywhere. My country is proud of us. Today we received the first UFC champion from Georgia, this means a lot,” MMA Fighting quotes Dvalishvili as saying.
