🔥 Dana White Teases Bantamweight Title Rematch: Merab Dvalishvili vs. Sean O’Malley

UFC President Dana White has hinted that a bantamweight title rematch between Merab Dvalishvili and Sean O’Malley could be on the horizon.

🏆 Dvalishvili vs. O’Malley 2?

Dvalishvili (19-4 MMA, 12-2 UFC) claimed the 135-pound title from O’Malley (18-2 MMA, 10-2 UFC) in September at UFC 306, winning via unanimous decision. He then successfully defended the belt in January, defeating Umar Nurmagomedov.

Meanwhile, O’Malley has been recovering from hip surgery, which he says was already an issue before his loss to Dvalishvili. Now, both fighters appear eager for a rematch.

🗣️ Dana White: “They Want It, Fans Want It”

Speaking after UFC Fight Night 252 in Seattle, White acknowledged the growing anticipation:

“They want to fight each other. I think people want to see it.”
