Number two in the UFC bantamweight division rankings Merab Dvalishvili commented on the appointment of a title fight between the champion Sean O'Malley And Marlon Vera, occupying sixth place.
“I knew in advance that they were going to organize this fight. I am extremely disappointed. Faith does not deserve this opportunity. He has a 1-1 record in his last two fights.
Corey Sandhagen beat him, Jose Aldo beat him. And I beat Aldo. I'm the main contender. Or they should have given Aljamain Sterling a rematch. But it’s all about money,” Dvalishvili said in an interview with MMA Junkie.
Let us remind you that the fight between O’Malley and Vera is scheduled for March next year.
