UFC 316 is rapidly approaching, set to take place this Saturday at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. The event features a stacked card, highlighted by not one, but two championship contests in the bantamweight divisions.
In the highly anticipated main event, Merab Dvalishvili is slated to defend his title. His opponent is none other than Sean O’Malley, who, according to the text, Dvalishvili previously defeated at UFC 306 to claim the belt.
Before the main event fireworks, the co-main event features a clash for the women`s bantamweight championship. Julianna Peña, recently reclaiming her title, will put it on the line against the formidable former PFL champion, Kayla Harrison, who is making her significant promotional debut in the UFC.
