With UFC 311 just around the corner, fans are enjoying a constant stream of content on social media. Recently, many MMA stars have shared their predictions for the fight, but one particular prediction stood out. Jiri Prochazka’s take on the Merab Dvalishvili vs. Umar Nurmagomedov title fight went viral, capturing the attention of fans online.
At the UFC 311 media day, fighters on the main card answered reporters’ questions. However, one reporter asked Jiri Prochazka for his predictions on the Islam Makhachev vs. Arman Tsarukyan fight and the Dvalishvili vs. Umar Nurmagomedov matchup.
The former light heavyweight champion paused, closed his eyes in deep thought, and then mentioned “Merab” before adding “Nurmagomedov.” One fan, finding the mix-up funny, hilariously combined both names and wrote, “Merab Nurmagomedov.”
