Levan Makashvili: Loses Close Bout To Hacran Dias Saturday
Makashvili lost to Hacran Dias via split decision (28-29, 29-28, 28-29) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Hollywood, Florida.
ANALYSIS
Makashvili won the battle on the feet and was the far more efficient striker, but he spent a lot of time in the bout on his back and that obviously influenced the judges decision. Makashvili has now been involved in split decisions in his first two UFC bouts, he's 1-1. He's just 26-years-old and if he can clean up his wrestling a bit, he has a chance to be a top-15 guy in the featherweight division.
