Henry Cejudo and Merab Dvalishvili will meet again.
With the RAF Lightweight Crossover Championship on the line, Cejudo and Dvalishvili will rematch at RAF 12 on Aug. 22 at Rocket Arena in Cleveland. The match will serve as the event's headliner. RAF announced the news in a press release Saturday.

Cejudo and Dvalishvili met on the mats in the main event of RAF Georgia, which took place on July 11 at Tbilisi Arena. Cejudo jumped out to an 8-0
lead, but Dvalishvili came storming back to get the win in his home country. Dvalishvili is 2-0 under the RAF banner, while Cejudo is 1-1.
This will be the third meeting between the two former UFC champions. They first met on the main card of UFC 298, in a fight Dvalishvili won by unanimous decision.
