Merab Dvalishvili, the UFC champion in the bantamweight category, has stated his readiness to fight Cory Sandhagen.
“I want to stay active. I would be happy if I can have three fights this year. Cory Sandhagen seems to be looking forward to meeting me. He is a worthy contender. He has fought everyone in the division. And his skills are at a good level — that’s no secret. I have no problem fighting Cory after the fight with Sean, and then at the end of the year I want to have another match in New York or Las Vegas, which has become my new home,” — Dvalishvili’s words are quoted by Bloody Elbow.
