The fight with Merab Dvalishvili seemed like a foregone conclusion after the two’s first meeting. Instead, Petr Yan stole the show at UFC 323, recapturing the throne that was once his after an illegal knee saw him abdicate said crown. He approached the Merab Dvalishvili fight with a perfect gameplan that exploited the Georgian’s heavy schedule in 2025. Alexandre Pantoja also saw his reign come to an end, but on the most gruesome of terms. Only 26 seconds into his fight with Joshua Van, Alexandre Pantoja dislocated his elbow and it a gruesome sight. Joshua Van becomes the second youngest champion in UFC history and Alexandre Pantoja’s arm is pretty much shot. Brandon Moreno was handed the task of fending off new blood for the flyweight division, Tatsuro Taira. Taira was one fight removed from his close fight with Brandon Royval. Many thought he had nothing for the ever-scrambly Brandon Moreno. The first round didn’t look promising. But the second saw an adjusted Tatsuro Taira who went in, got the finish, and got out. Now, knowing Alexandre Pantoja’s injury, it seems Tatsuro Taira has set himself up for a title fight at UFC 323. Payton Talbott took Henry Cejudo out to the pasture at UFC 323. The Olympic champion made it clear that this was his final fight and Payton Talbott had no qualms beating up the old man. Talbott looked incredible. He was on point striking and his grappling against the former Olympic champion made the loss to Raoni Barcelos a distant memory. Look out, Payton Talbott is a problem at 135. #petryanvsmerabdvalishvili #yanvsmerab #merabvspetryan
