Number one in the UFC bantamweight rankings for Georgians Merab Dvalishvili spoke about his victory over the former division champion from Russia Petr Yan.

Last March, Dvalishvili defeated Yan in a crushing decision.

“Let me tell you something. There is one guy - Petr Yan. If I had lost to him, I would have committed suicide. Because he's not a good person, you know. He is not modest,” Dvalishvili said in an interview with Demetrius Johnson’s YouTube channel.
