Pretty sure he beats O'Malley but in his next couple fights he'll get clipped for sure and he'll be 35 by then. A harsh decline afterwards.
 
I'm speculating but if Merab were to lose it would probably be by KO/TKO, submission or decision. Typically.
DQ is always possible.

At this point i do agree that he'll probably be KO'ed in his next loss.

While he's lost before via sub and decision, at this point he seems immune to losing a decision (due to his cardio) or being subbed.
 
Think he’ll get slept eventually. He is pretty hittable. He relies on his chin so he can pressure and wear guys down. O’Malley and Umar both hurt him. Cejudo may have wobbled him too but I can’t remember. Of course Moraes had him nearly out of there.
 
He incorporates belal and try to prove a point by going 5nd rounds without wrestling
 
Honestly, I'm not counting O'Malley out on winning like most people here are.

I do think to beat Merab you need to KO/TKO him, and Sean is the best striker in the division.

Merab has the edge obviously, but it's a not a total given he'll beat Sean.
 
Hes been hurt and rocked multiple times. Suga could KO him this Saturday. I put some $$ on O'malley this Saturday.

If Merab is gonna lose its gonna be by KO because its gonna be near impossible to outwork him to win a decision
 
I think O'Malley has a real shot in the rematch. But assuming Merab wins, he probably runs through Yan or Sandhagen in his next fight.

After a win or two, I think Umar will be back in the mix. And a more experienced Umar probably beats an aging 35/36 year old Merab in the rematch.
 
he will only lose if he strays from his own morals and beliefs. other than that, change is inevitable.
 
He'll get knocked out eventually. Maybe even next week, but probably not.
