Henry Cejudo has experience fighting Merab Dvalishvili as he lost a unanimous decision to the Georgian fighter in February.
So how does Cejudo see Dvalishvili challenging bantamweight world champion Sean O'Malley going at UFC 306 on September 14?
The former UFC double champ believes Dvalishvili will win, especially if the bout goes to later rounds, but warned that O'Malley can finish the fight early.
"I do believe that he's going to take out Sean O'Malley," Cejudo said during a recent interview with Home of the Fight. "But I will say this, and quote me on this, [if] Sean beats him, he beats him at the beginning of the first round or the beginning of the second. But as the fight goes on, he's in f—ing trouble.
Cejudo added: "But [O'Malley] can catch him because Merab has been caught hard by me where I'm just like 'damn' and I catch people with hooks in there and they'll go down. He's been caught by Marlon Moraes where he's wobbling, shaky knees so he's able to come back.
"But as the fight prolongs, I do think he could be in the position where he could maybe even stop O'Malley."
In addition to letting his prediction be known, Cejudo said that he'd like to run it back with Dvalishvili.
