Merab Dvalishvili vs. Cody Stamann rebooked for UFC event on May 1

The third time will hopefully be the charm for the bantamweight fight between Merab Dvalishvili and Cody Stamann as they are now expected to meet at the upcoming UFC card on May 1.

Multiple people with knowledge of the re-booking confirmed the news to MMA Fighting on Wednesday following an initial report from MMA Junkie.

The fight was originally scheduled for this past December, but Stamann was forced out of the bout for undisclosed reasons. The UFC then rebooked the fight for February, but Dvalishvili dropped out after he contracted COVID-19.
