UFC 316 Preview, start time, Full Fight Card, how to fight live stream as Merab Dvalishvili, Sean O'malley

Dvalishvili did Umar Nurmagomedov the same in January before picking up this removal in New Jersey.

With Conor McGregor, who supports DvalShvili, the Georgian will have confidence in his second title defense of UFC Bantamweight.

However, he has to fight a man with a massive range of reach if he still wants to go out of the champion from New Jersey.

Elsewhere, the Co-Main event of Julianna Pena Kayla Harrison sees the Bantamweight title of the UFC women.

Pena was twice in her first fight in two years when she defeated Raquel Pennington at UFC 307, but will have a difficult task against the American judo expert Harrison in New Jersey.

Sean O'malley admits that he forced his aversion to Merab Dvalishvili before her first fight

While some UFC fighters really hate themselves before their play in the Octagon, the feud on the screen between O'malley and Dvishvili was not real.

In an interview with Ariel Helwani, O'malley admitted just as much before her UFC 316 decomposition and actually claimed that he had grown his opponent in the months since her collision.

O'malley said: “I feel like the first Merab fight, I didn't want to like it, because as a fan I enjoy when two fighters don't really like each other and there is beef there, I enjoy it.

“So I had the feeling that I wanted to do it, and it wasn't very authentic because I like Merab. I met him a few times, he is a nice guy, it is nothing. He is on the way to do his own thing so that I do not know whether it has influenced his performance or what, but Merab doesn't mind.”

O'malley will try to regain the title of the UFC Bantam weight of Dvalishvili at UFC 316.
