Merab Dvalishvili made short work of bodybuilding influencer Larry Wheels, submitting him in seconds in a grappling clip.
Wheels had apparently done some wrestling preparation in the week since a previous clip circulated showing an earlier roll between the two — and the work bought him roughly twenty seconds of credible resistance before the inevitable arrived.

Once Dvalishvili found his grip and Wheels's conditioning gave out, the choke was academic. Against one of the most relentless grapplers in the UFC, twenty seconds of competence is about as good an outcome as any influencer could reasonably claim.
While Wheels is big physically, the discipline demands entirely different things from the body, and the moment his gas tank emptied, the size and strength advantages he carries into any room became irrelevant.

Dvalishvili, one of the most cardio-reliant fighters on the UFC roster, is arguably the worst possible matchup for anyone whose conditioning has limits. The clip proved the point efficiently.
