“I was heartbroken,” Dvalishvili told Uncrowned ahead of his title defense against former champ Sean O’Malley at UFC 316 on Saturday. “I lost a fight. You know, you can lose maybe a tennis game, a soccer game. But this is a fight. When you take a loss in a fight, it’s hard. I was thinking, maybe I wasn’t good enough. Maybe I should quit.”

Back in January at UFC 311, Dvalishvili entered his first title defense against a very promising Nurmagomedov in the co-main event of the pay-per-view card. Dvalishvili had a tough fight in the first couple of rounds, but then went on to dominate and overwhelm Nurmagomedov to win a unanimous decision.
