Merab Dvalishvili weighs in on the aura surrounding Dagestani fighters

Merab Dvalishvili defended his title against Umar Nurmagomedov, displaying incredible cardio, wrestling, and takedown defense. The bout sparked a ton of discourse about Georgian versus Dagestani wrestling, roping in the rumored matchup between Islam Makhachev and Ilia Topuria as well.

Speaking on the aura of invincibility associated with Dagestani fighters, 'The Machine' believes fans view them as exceptional because they have largely remained undefeated in the UFC. The Georgian champion said:

"Dagestanis are really good fighters. They have always excelled in martial arts... But at the same time, they are ordinary people, heavenly forces do not help them. They are ordinary athletes and others can defeat them, as you saw in my case. Khabib went undefeated, but he simply did not meet a worthy opponent."
