Media Merab Dvalishvili vs. Umar Nurmagomedov

['Rocky']

Figured I'd make a poll.

Who wins?

 

[Meathead Jock]

Merab is +150 right now. From reading the forums you would think he was +500 or more.

Should be a great fight. If I can get Merab at +200 or more I'll put a small bet on him.

Against the Nurmagomedovs

there can be no victory.


Well unless its Abubakar, then you can swing it

 

[Ladron4sherdog]

Umar wins the title...

 

[AmonTobin]

Can Umar’s heart keep up? Can Merab’s chin stand up? Another cardiac submission win for Merab?

I think this is the deciding factor. Will Umars newly found Abu Dhabi cardio be available in California? It has not been in there in the past in Las Vegas.

I am going to lean Umar slightly because we know what Merab needs to do to win. Merab fights play out the exact same way. All Umar has to do is basically avoid being taken down consistently for 3 rounds and I think Umar's standup is better than Merab's.

 

[AL-Tappo McSnappo]

it should be the toughest fight both of the, ever had

Umar never had bad cardio though, he's always thrown like 10 kicks a second and wrestled hard, dagestanis in general have good cardio due to their heavy wrestling training from early in life.

This is going be a boring ass sparing match

He is known for his sus cardio, but luckily things improved dramatically for his last bout.

 

['Rocky']

Lots of questions for this fight.

Can Merab take Umar down at all?
If so, how long can he hold him?
What does Merab do if Umar outwrestles him?

It helps when weight cutting is optional and the guy weighing you will say you made weight, regardless of what you weigh

 

[flektarn]

Tough one. Want to lean merab but idk. I haven't seen a guy stop his clinching or takedowns so I really haven't had a chance to see his striking. Umars striking isn't anything to write home about but maybe it's better than merabs.

Merab makes it look easy, y'all stay suprised.

I think he wins but not easy, I see him pulling away in the later rnds.

All the Merab haters who called him a duck should post an apology and go suck a lemon

Yeah he never said I wouldn't fight him. Just that he doesn't deserve it.

Nah he was ducking and then he got really upset & stopped ducking. Ducking still happened!
