Aljamain Sterling Predicts Merab Dvalishvili Will Stop Petr Yan at UFC 323

“I am picking Merab to get a finish…possibly in the 3rd or 4th round TKO,” Sterling said, backing the bantamweight champ to earn his first knockout since 2021. He called Yan “hard to submit,” noting he once had the former champ’s neck and couldn’t finish. Sterling added, “Win or lose, he’s officially the bantamweight GOAT.” UFC 323 marks Merab’s fourth title defense of the year.
