A single word to describe Merab Dvalishvili? Definitely “Beast!” The Georgian American mixed martial artist embodies the Monster Energy spirit like few other athletes. Never giving up, always seeking the next challenge, and making history in the process – Dvalishvili is one of a kind. Known for his boundless energy and grappling talent, he started training in wrestling, sambo, and judo at a young age in his native Georgia. Relocated to the United States at age 21, he discovered MMA and quickly rose through the ranks of several promotions. A brutal knockout win caught the eye of UFC President Dana White – and the rest is the stuff of legend: Originally derided as an underdog, Dvalishvili perfected his powerful mix of aggressive takedowns and high volume striking into an unstoppable force in the UFC’s Bantamweight division. The critics turned silent when “The Machine” rode a record-setting win streak into claiming the UFC Bantamweight title at UFC 306, making history as the second Georgian to win a UFC title. Speaking of milestones, Dvalishvili also holds records for most takedowns as well as total strikes landed in UFC Bantamweight division history. Watch closely what happens next, because the underdog is on top!
