UFC 316 is set to feature an action-packed fight card headlined by two championship bouts taking place at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, on Saturday night.
In the highly anticipated main event, UFC Bantamweight Champion Merab Dvalishvili will once again face former champion Sean O’Malley. Their previous encounter at UFC 306 on September 14, 2024, saw Dvalishvili emerge victorious via unanimous decision.
