UFC 306 , which celebrates Mexican Independence, doesn’t have a Mexican or fighter of Mexican descent competing in the main even. However, it might have an adopted Mexican depending on who you ask. Georgia’s Merab Dvalishvili , who now resides in the U.S., challenges UFC bantamweight champion Sean O’Malley in the headlining act of UFC 306, also known as Noche UFC, at the Sphere in Las Vegas. With no Mexican representative to look up to in main event, Dvalishvili has become somewhat of an honorary Mexican through his wholesome efforts in embracing the culture.
