Merab Dvalishvili's conversation with Laura Sanko on her new show on Kick pivots into bovine reproductive procedures!
The UFC is full of colorful characters both inside and outside the octagon. Fighters come from all walks of life. They bring unique perspectives shaped by diverse backgrounds. From countryside farmers to city dwellers, each fighter has stories that surprise fans. These personal tales often reveal sides of fighters fans never see during their bouts. The human element behind these elite athletes creates connections beyond fight night.
Among the most charismatic personalities in the UFC today is Merab Dvalishvili. The Georgian bantamweight contender grew up in a small village before becoming a world-class fighter. His journey from rural Georgia to UFC stardom is filled with fascinating cultural quirks. Merab never shies away from sharing his upbringing with fans. His authentic, sometimes hilariously lost-in-translation moments have made him a fan favorite. Now, thanks to Laura Sanko’s new show, fans are getting an even more unfiltered look at the farming knowledge he brought from his homeland.

UFC analyst Laura Sanko has expanded her broadcasting portfolio with an exciting new venture. She recently announced her new livestream show on Kick.com with Merab Dvalishvili as her first guest.
“NEW SHOW ALERT. Tomorrow (4/8 @ 4pm pst / 7pm est) we are kicking off a new livestream show on kick.com …I’ll be hosting a 1 hour sesh with the champ @merab.dvalishvili on the @ufc Kick channel … Don’t miss it! Come say hi in the chat”
Sanko has steadily climbed the UFC broadcasting ladder since transitioning from fighter to analyst. She made history last year by becoming the first female commentator for modern UFC events. Her knowledge, charisma, and interview skills have made her one of the promotion’s most valuable media personalities. This new show format allows Sanko to showcase her talents in a more casual, interactive setting.
The show took an unexpectedly hilarious turn when the conversation drifted to farming practices. Sanko, curious about Merab’s rural upbringing, asked if farmers in his village check cow pregnancies by inserting their arms into the animals. Dvalishvili’s response left viewers howling with laughter.
“We don’t do that in my village. Maybe in Dagestan.You gotta witness when the cow, she has a time when she wants to get pregnant. They go crazy. So you gotta find a man cow [bull] and you gotta do it like quick because you don’t have much time.”
The Georgian fighter explained that in his village, they don’t use such methods. Instead, they observe the cow’s behavior to determine if she’s in heat. Once they notice the signs, they get the bull ready for natural breeding.
Merab Dvalishvili’s unfiltered honesty and willingness to discuss anything without pretense makes him so endearing to fans. From dominating opponents in the octagon to casually discussing bovine reproductive habits, ‘The Machine’ proved again why he is one of the most refreshingly original personalities in combat sports. The success of this inaugural episode suggests UFC fans have a new must-watch show to add to their viewing schedules, especially if future guests bring similarly unexpected conversation topics to the table!
