Merab Dvalishvili, the Georgian powerhouse in the UFC, has not only made a name for himself inside the octagon but also in the realm of comedy. His recent skits featuring Aljamain Sterling and a Sean O’Malley lookalike have left fans in splits. Let’s dive into the world of Merab’s humor and how it’s adding a unique twist to his rivalry with O’Malley.
In a recent video, Merab introduces us to Sean O’Malley’s doppelganger. But this isn’t your typical sparring session. Instead, Merab takes it upon himself to train the O’Malley clone. His close friend and former bantamweight champion, Aljamain Sterling, even makes a cameo appearance. Aljo, affectionately known as “The Machine,” advises the O’Malley lookalike to quit smoking before their impending clash. “I find this guy in Arizona. He was smoking too much. I’m gonna take him to my garage and I’m gonna train him,” says Merab.

Merab Dvalishvili is becoming a master in humour
Now, why is this skit so amusing? Well, Sean O’Malley is no stranger to using marijuana for hyper-focused training. He’s been open about it, emphasizing that it’s not an addiction but rather a tool for enhancing his performance. On the flip side, Merab Dvalishvili boasts one of the best cardio engines in the UFC. So, the video playfully raises questions: Can O’Malley keep up the pace for five rounds, especially against someone like Merab?
Aljamain Sterling’s appearance in the skit adds another layer of hilarity. As Merab’s teammate and training partner, Aljo is all in to help his friend prepare for the title run. Their chemistry shines through, and it’s evident that these skits won’t disappear anytime soon. Perhaps they’ll continue all the way to fight week.
Merab’s approach to mocking O’Malley is refreshing. Instead of hurling insults, he uses humor and satire. It’s a departure from the usual trash talk, and fans are loving it. The video caught O’Malley’s attention too, prompting him to admit, “Lolz I giggled for real.” The banter between the two fighters keeps the rivalry engaging and light-hearted.
So, as we eagerly await their showdown, let’s raise a virtual toast to Merab Dvalishvili—the man who’s not only a machine in the octagon but also a comedic genius outside it.
