Johnson named Dvalishvili the best fighter in UFC bantamweight history

Alexandr Ormanji Sept. 30, 2025, 5:51 a.m.

Former UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson named Merab Dvalishvili the best bantamweight fighter in the history of the promotion.

“It’s not easy to choose between Merab and Dominick, as Dvalishvili is so good at what he does. Cruz, on the other hand, has a very high fighting IQ. However, I’m not saying that Merab doesn’t have that. I just don’t know if Merab could beat him. But you know... just because of how many former UFC champions Merab has beaten, I’m going to say that he is the greatest in the bantamweight division.”
