Roman Dolidze Defeats Marvin Vettori in Rematch, Eyes Top Contenders

After a unanimous decision win at UFC Vegas 104, Dolidze calls out Israel Adesanya and Robert Whittaker while Vettori pushes for a trilogy fight.

Roman Dolidze avenged his 2023 loss to Marvin Vettori with a dominant unanimous decision victory at UFC Vegas 104, with all judges scoring the fight 49-46 in his favor.
Dolidze credited his improved pacing and control over aggression for his five-round performance, marking his third consecutive win and likely moving him into the top 10 middleweight rankings.
Following his win, Dolidze called for a top-five opponent, specifically targeting former champions Israel Adesanya and Robert Whittaker, though Whittaker has expressed reluctance to accept the fight.
Marvin Vettori, who returned to the Octagon after a nearly two-year hiatus due to a shoulder injury, expressed disappointment in his performance and called for a trilogy fight to settle the 1-1 record between the two fighters.
The UFC has yet to confirm Dolidze's next opponent, with speculation suggesting he may face other highly ranked middleweights before securing a fight against a top-five contender.
