The collaboration unfolded in one of Dvalishvili’s training sessions ahead of his next fight. The playful interaction quickly spread on social media and was captured in a video showing James trying to tackle the champion. It was far from a serious sparring session, but Merab DValishvili looked like Francia James was breathless after a triangular chalk.
