Merab Dvalishvili expects his third fight with Petr Yan to go the distance if it has to. "I'm ready for a 25-minute war," he said ahead of UFC 333.

The series is level: Dvalishvili won their first meeting and Yan won the second, ending Dvalishvili's long winning run. This time the bantamweight title is on the line again, in the co-main event.

Dvalishvili says he will look for the finish but is happy to win on points, and calls Yan the most dangerous man in the division right now.

UFC 333 is on Saturday 24 October at Etihad Arena, Abu Dhabi, with Volkanovski vs Evloev in the main event.
