It’s probably not a good idea to mess with UFC Bantamweight contender Merab Dvalishvili while out in public.
On Friday night, Merab attended the Craig Jones Invitational BJJ tournament in Las Vegas.
While at the event, someone in the crowd decided to heckle Merab, which led to the UFC fighter jumping over the gate and chasing after the fan in the stands.
Merab just charged a heckler in the crowd at #CJI and knocked his hat off his head 😳

Thankfully, Merab chose not to hit the fan but only take his hat off his head.
Merab is pretty smart not to jeopardize his September 14th title shot against Sean O’Malley at The Sphere.
