Summary
Jim Norton and Matt Serra are joined by reigning UFC bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili, who returns for his 15th appearance on Unfiltered — just weeks after a whirlwind stretch that saw him defend his title on a Saturday and celebrate Aljamain Sterling’s wedding the very next day.
Merab discusses staying hungry now that he’s beaten nearly everyone in his division, eyeing a UFC-record fourth title defense of 2025 at UFC 323, and his thoughts on Petr Yan’s resurgence, Umar Nurmagomedov vs. Mario Bautista, and whether a featherweight move is viable in the near future.
Then, former light heavyweight champion Glover Teixeira joins the show to reflect on Alex Pereira surprising him with a brand-new blue pickup truck, how proud he was seeing Pereira show class after his latest win, and what he thinks of his potential in the heavyweight division.
Plus, Jim and Matt look ahead to UFC 321 fight week and share which upcoming matchups have them the most excited.
