Yan (20-5 MMA, 12-4 UFC) achieved his biggest career moment on Saturday at T-Mobile Arena with a unanimous decision win over Dvalishvili (21-5 MMA, 14-3 UFC), who was on a 14-fight winning streak and attempting to become the first in history with four UFC title defenses in a calendar year. Additionally, he held a dominant March 2023 win over Yan, who got revenge for it all.
