On Saturday, the UFC returns to Newark, N.J. for UFC 316, where Merab Dvalishvili and Sean O'Malley will face off in a highly-anticipated rematch for the Bantamweight Title.
Dvalishvili, the current champion, won their first bout at UFC 306 by a narrow margin of five points. In their upcoming rematch, Dvalishvili is the clear favourite to retain his title, with odds of -275. However, O'Malley has a chance to turn the tables if he improves his performance.
O'Malley's lethal striking abilities have earned him favourable odds of -155 for this fight. If the fight goes the distance, the odds imply that it will go over 4.5 rounds, according to UFC betting sites. The spread for the fight is 5.5, with Sean O'Malley at +5.5.
In their first bout, Dvalishvili landed significantly more strikes (214/310) than O'Malley (49/91). O'Malley's striking performance was one of the worst in his career, which could provide an opportunity for him to showcase his improvements this time around.
O'Malley, known for his striking-focused fighting style, has recorded eight career finishes by knockout/TKO. If he can deliver a strong performance, he could potentially make bettors a substantial amount of money this weekend.
Despite losing their first bout, Dvalishvili has shown his resilience, having successfully defended his title once already, beating Umar Nurmagomedov by unanimous decision at UFC 311 in January.
This rematch is not the only exciting fight on the UFC 316 card. Stay tuned for more updates on this action-packed event.
