Umar Nurmagomedov has reached out to UFC flyweight champion Merab Dvalishvili about the fight.
"I'm always ready and now I'm waiting for my opponent as Yadong didn't take the fight in December - I was told he was injured. Merab, before my fight with Sandhagen, you said that if I beat him, I would get recognition. Now you have changed your position - make up your mind.
All the fans and analysts are already noticing how you avoid fighting me. The championship is recognition, but you did not get it, and you know it very well," Nurmagomedov wrote on his page on social networks.
