Merab Dvalishvili suffers brutal cut in training just weeks out from UFC 316 title fight as Dana White reacts

Only a few weeks after the Blockbuster UFC 316 event in Newark, New Jersey, Merab Dvalishvili has again worried the fan base.

On June 7, the UFC returns to the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey for UFC 316, headed by a huge Bantamweight title Rematch between Merab Dvalishvili and Sean O'Malley.

Their first meeting came to the atmosphere in the historic event of the UFC last September and after the disappointing performance of O'Malley he revealed that he was fighting with a torn Labrum.

Fans criticized the UFC for giving 'Suga' an immediate title Rematch to which he responded to the criticism by claiming that his camp has already been much different than his first.

Merab DvalishVili suffers a brutal cut only a few weeks after UFC 316

Prior to their Rematch, O'Malley trained with Israel Adesanya, the former UFC Middleweight Champion.

Merab 'The Machine' has previously received a lot of criticism for his antics outside the cage because he is an eccentric personality.

Georgian concern recently made fans after sharing a video of him dancing on the side of a cliff, and after he overlapped, he only avoided a disaster.

And now only a few weeks after his title Rematch against O'Malley, DvalishHvili has caused worries again among the UFC fans after he had shared images of a brutal cut he has contracted in training.

This is not the first time that 'The Machine' has shared images of a cut that is contracted in training, just like their first meeting at UFC 306, DvalishVili posted images online of a cut he had only a few weeks ago.

This led to UFC boss Dana White shoots him furiously and labeled him 'stupid' during a press conference after Dvalishvili had removed the stitches with enormous scissors.

Dana White has responded to the cut of Dvalishvili in a pole that concludes an image of a false reaction.

“Total bulls -” White responded to a fake pole on X.

The size of Merab's cut this time is currently unknown, but the images that are shared with his social media shows that ran blood from his face.

Fans respond to the brutal cut of Dvalishvili while they share their worries

Regardless of the size of the eye injury of the Georgians, fans have shared their worries given that he is only a few weeks after his title defense.

“Merab literally does some s – like this every fight. I love it,” a fan responded.

“Brur, why are you posting your cut?” Another fan asked him.

“Merab, please invest in some headwear,” a third fan suggested.

“Dana is about to make the F panic,” said another fan.

In his UFC 311 title defense against Umar Nurmagomedov, Dvalishvili went to his shin with a brutal injury and shares images of the state of his leg after their fight.
