Ultimate Fighting Championship
Makashvili was expected to make his promotional debut against Nik Lentz on February 14, 2015 at UFC Fight Night 60.[4] However, the pairing was scrapped just prior to the weigh-ins as Lentz was stricken with flu-like symptoms.[5]
Makashvili eventually made his debut on May 16, 2015 as he faced Mark Eddiva at UFC Fight Night 66.[6] He won the fight via split decision.[7]
Makashvili faced Hacran Dias on June 27, 2015 at UFC Fight Night 70, filling in as a short notice replacement for Chas Skelly.[8] He lost the fight via split decision.[9]
Makashvili faced Damon Jackson on January 30, 2016 at UFC on Fox 18.[10] The bout was ruled a majority draw (28-28, 28-28, 29-27) after Makashvili was deducted one point in the third round due to an illegal knee and eye poke.[11]
