The recent altercation involving UFC star Merab Dvalishvili at the Craig Jones Invitational was frightening, well, at least for the heckler. But this has ignited a heated exchange between Sean O’Malley and the Georgian fighter. The dramatic display captured significant attention, prompting O’Malley to weigh in with his own take on the situation.
Sean O’Malley addressed the incident during his talk show, blending his signature humor with sharp commentary. He described the event with a mix of sarcasm and mockery.
“He grabs his hair, which is assault and he could be sued for assaulting a civilian. Attention all ‘Suga’ Sean O’Malley fans, will you guys please, from the bottom of my heart, quit making fun of Merab. He can’t handle it. He’s very insecure,” said O’Malley.
Dvalishvili’s reaction to the fan’s taunts was swift and physical. According to reports, the fan had made a derogatory comment about him, which set him off. He jumped over several security fences and grabbed the fan by the hair. The footage of this confrontation quickly went viral, spreading across social media platforms.
The controversy is bound to intensify as the two fighters are scheduled to face off for the bantamweight championship at UFC 306. While “Suga‘ is confident in his abilities, Merab is one of the best grapplers in the division. This fight promises to be a spectacle with a spectacular venue in the Las Vegas Sphere.

In a recent episode of the JRE MMA Show, Rogan discussed the upcoming fight with MMA veteran Quinton Jackson. The conversation quickly turned to why Dvalishvili poses such a significant threat to O’Malley.
“He’s the worst matchup for Sean, the worst matchup on paper for Sean in that division is Merab. Because if you have a chance to beat Sean, how would you beat him? You got to take him down, right?” said Rogan.
Rogan based his insight on Merab Dvalishvili’s impressive track record. He has a knack for dominating his opponents with his grappling skills. This style contrasts sharply with O’Malley’s striking-focused approach. It remains to be seen whether Rogan’s analysis holds true.
