Dvalishvili: "I see O'Malley as a dangerous opponent."

No. 1 ranked UFC lightweight Merab Dvalishvili has spoken out about a potential fight with current division champion Sean O'Malley.

"I see O'Malley as a dangerous opponent because he moves great, he has knockout power, a very strong right hand and good timing. I see him as a dangerous fighter.

Visualizing a fight with him, I think I have to act smart, be patient, stay in the standup and wait for the right moment for the kickdown. If he can defend himself, I'll let him go and then try to move him again. I'll make him slow down, he'll get tired, and eventually I'll move him to the parterre and smash him," MMA Fighting quotes Dvalishvili as saying.

Recall that 33-year-old Dvalishvili is on a streak of 10 consecutive wins.
