"He knows who’s the 🐐" "Love ya flyweight goat❤️" "Love Pantoja, but if Ilia is not p4p no.1 or no.2, then no one but Merab deserves to be in that spot. 13 fight win streak. He literally has cleaned out his division and also defended his title 2 times already. Pantoja is no.4 coz illia ko'd 2 greatest 145ers and then Charles" "ABSOLUTELY 💯 the disrespect to Pantoja is insane."

Merab Dvalishvili names his UFC P4P list featuring Alexandre Pantoja and Islam Makhachev

Alexandre Pantoja has a UFC record of 8-0 since his last defeat in 2020. He is currently on a four-fight title defense streak, with victories over Kai Kara-France, Kai Asakura, Steve Erceg, and Brandon Royval.

A few months ago, during a discussion on The Ariel Helwani Show, Merab Dvalishvili shared his UFC pound-for-pound (P4P) rankings, placing Ilia Topuria, Islam Makhachev, and Pantoja ahead of himself:

"Right now, I will say Ilia [Topuria]. Number one... I mean, he’s undefeated and how he wins the last three fights and two-division champion. Number two, Islam [Makhachev]. I will say number three, [Alexandre] Pantoja... Number four, me. Number four is good... I have to be humble because I don’t wanna overlook my opponents."
