Merab Dvalishvili’s bantamweight outlook centers on recovery from a recent nose injury that sidelined him from a planned December 2025 rematch, prompting both him and champion Petr Yan to confirm an immediate trilogy bout targeted for summer 2026, most likely August on a numbered card. This direct endorsement from the fighters and UFC has driven trader consensus toward Yan as the frontrunner, reflecting their 2023 clash and mutual desire to settle the rivalry. Umar Nurmagomedov sits second as the division’s top active contender with strong recent form, while Deiveson Figueiredo and Cory Sandhagen trail due to stylistic matchups and ranking proximity that could position them for a title eliminator if the Yan fight slips. Sean O’Malley and others register minimal interest absent major roster shifts.
