To celebrate their success at UFC 306, newly crowned champions Merab Dvalishvili and Valentina Shevchenko rejoiced with some sick dance moves.
Merab Dvalishvili
The road to the title was long for ‘The Machine’. It took ten consecutive victories for Dvalishvili to finally earn his title shot against Sean O’Malley, and he did not squander his opportunity. The fierce Georgian fighter overwhelmed his opponent with pure tenacity and grit.
‘Suga’ could not keep up with Dvalishvili’s wrestling prowess, and eventually, the rounds started slipping away. The Georgian would amass an astonishing ten minutes of control time and even doubled O’Malley’s significant strike output. The judges would score the fight unanimously for Dvalishvili, and the young man would finally have his first UFC title.
Valentina Shevchenko
Shevchenko has finally recaptured her women’s UFC flyweight title from Alexa Grasso. Grasso defeated Shevchenko in early 2023 and fought the Russian to a draw in the rematch later that year. Now, Shevchenko has gold back around her waist after a terrific victory at UFC 306 and is ecstatic about it.

As far as the future goes, the road ahead for the newly crowned champions will be a challenging one. All eyes will be on them, and they have nothing left to strive for besides defending their thrones. Each challenger that they vanquish will just be replaced by more. It is a grueling job to capture a title, but an even more grueling one to defend it.
