Merab did more than the winning
He showed that dagestanis aren't immortal, that they can be defeated
Cograts Merab

[drada]

I am Georgian, and i got tears in my Eyes.
He made us Super Proud today!
Thanks Merab!

[niklasmadvig]

Im coming to Georgia 🇬🇪 next week so happy for Ilia and Merab!
Biggest respect from Denmark 🎉

[RatedRRaj]

Overtaking GSP’s takedown record is no joke. Merab is the definition of relentless!

[aryamanmani]

Where is the ‘Merab is ducking Umar’ crowd now? 3 fights in 11 months, beat the shit outta 3 former champs. Beat 2 of the most privileged fighters of all time (Suga, Umar). Solidified himself as the greatest Bantamweight of all time. A top 3 champ only third to Ilia/Islam.

[icyBulls]

The level of hate and disrespect Merab received was disgusting. This is the most satisfying win I’ve seen as a fan.

[nervewracking]

With that kind of cardio, you're truly "The Machine", Merab. Wow!

[syedasharimam]

Umar was already tired after 2 rounds
And Merab after 3 rounds was still very chill, relax and talking

[KingDomsKingdom]

Merab becoming a fan favourite warms my cold heart 😂. Such a personality on him. Good for him, man.

[Aadityadt]

This is the sweetest win I'd say, winning against an undefeated fighter from Dagestan.
This win is something else!

[chesstictacs]

What a decent dude this Merab is. Right after the decision is announced he starts looking for Dana and shakes his hand and expresses his gratitude to him and the UFC. And at the end sends love to his country and says big thank you to America. Well deserved my friend, what a great guy.

[thronefghgh]

This has to be one of the most feel good wins of all time for me. Merab was counted out by everybody and didn’t get the respect he deserved despite what he has proven he can do just because of his opponents last name.

Merab deserves his flowers big time.

[abdullahzafar]

I am a hardcore Nurmagomedov fan but Merab showed levels today. The guy had surgery a couple of months ago and still put on such a stunning performance. What an insane resume he's got. Bantam Weight GOAT.

[Appoplexian]

Merab is operating against the world his whole life and he constantly proves doubters wrong. It's beautiful to see what human determination and willpower can do. After defeating Umar he truly has cemented himself as the greatest bantamweight in the history of UFC. It's just crazy to look at his resume he truly is the Machine. Also, outside the octagon I believe he's really humble so I root for him and wish him every success.

[RatedRRaj]

Cardio machine, takedown legend, and now a record breaker. Merab keeps proving himself again and again.

[isaacambriz]

Was khabib reaching for the belt at the 0:20 thinking he was going to put it around Umar's waist? Haha

[luzgeldres]

Love this crazy man, Merab the Champion in life and the octagon 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

[TheBatosai]

"You have to be MAN FIRST" that's my machine!! 🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪

[alamax]

Georgian fighters are on fire right now!

Illia👑
Merab👑

[luzgeldres]

Merab have a big heart and inhuman lungs, so happy for him and, love the guy❤
