Tom Aspinall expressed admiration for Merab Dvalishvili after his impressive title defense against Sean O'Malley at UFC 316. Aspinall praised Dvalishvili's relentless fighting style and formidable cardio, calling him a stylistic nightmare for other bantamweights. He noted that Dvalishvili's training regime, including lengthy sparring sessions, contributes significantly to his endurance. Aspinall even stated a desire to enhance his own cardio, directly addressing Dvalishvili: "I want Merab's cardio. Get me in that kind of shape." This signifies Aspinall's respect for Dvalishvili's conditioning and fighting capability.
I want Merab's cardio. Merab, show me what's what. Get me in that kind of shape. I'm ready for it.
Merab just doesn't stylistically match well with anybody else in the division... he just keeps going, won't stop.
