The Octagon remains in Nevada for tonight’s UFC Las Vegas event, a thirteen-bout fight card headlined by Petr Yan vs. Merab Dvalishvili.
Yan (16-4 MMA) will enter tonight’s headliner with hopes of snapping a two-fight losing skid. The former bantamweight champion is coming off back-to-back split decision losses against Sean O’Malley and Aljamain Sterling respectively.
Meanwhile, Merab Dvalishvili (15-4 MMA) will enter the contest sporting an eight-fight winning streak, his latest being a unanimous decision victory over Jose Aldo at UFC 278. ‘The Machine’ has not tasted defeat since 2018 when he suffered a submission loss to Ricky Simon.
UFC Las Vegas is co-headlined by a heavyweight matchup featuring Alexander Volkov taking on Alexander Romanov.
Volkov (35-10 MMA) will be returning to action for the first time since scoring a TKO victory over Jairzinho Rozenstruik in June of last year. The former Bellator champion has gone 3-2 over his past five fights overall.
Meanwhile, Alexander Romanov (16-1 MMA) will be looking to rebound, this after suffering his first career loss at the hands of Marcin Tybura last August. ‘King Kong’ has gone 5-1 since joining the UFC ranks in September of 2020.
Also featured on tonight’s main card is a key light heavyweight bout between Nikita Krylov and Ryan Spann.
