The Georgian fighter and, as of 2025, the reigning UFC Bantamweight champion, Merab Dvalishvili, doesn’t have a great start in the world’s most popular MMA promotion, UFC, but the Georgian, who is nicknamed “The Machine,” started his UFC journey with two losses in his first two fights. Many looked down upon him and thought that the fighter didn’t have the skills required to compete in such high competition, but proving his doubters wrong, he not only rose in the UFC Bantamweight division but claimed the title by defeating Sean O’Malley at UFC Noche.
After his impressive victory over the then-undefeated Umar Nurmagomedov at UFC 311 in 2025, he solidified his position as the greatest Bantamweight fighter in the UFC. Currently, Merab Dvalishvili has 19 wins in his professional career, but he also has 4 losses. Here is the list of all the losses the Georgian has suffered in his professional career so far.
