Dvalishvili Confident Ahead of UFC 333 Trilogy Bout with Yan

Merab Dvalishvili, a former UFC bantamweight champion, is set to face Petr Yan in a trilogy bout at UFC 333 this Saturday in Abu Dhabi. Dvalishvili, who lost the title to Yan last December, is determined to prove he is the superior fighter.

After a year marked by four successful title defenses, Dvalishvili is returning to the octagon refreshed and ready to reclaim his championship. He has stated his belief in his improved skills and readiness to demonstrate them in the upcoming fight.

Both fighters have previously met twice, with their first encounter in 2023 resulting in a victory for Dvalishvili, while Yan won decisively in their rematch last year. The trilogy fight will take place at Etihad Arena, with the main card scheduled to start around 10 p.m. local time.
