Former bantamweight champion, Sean O’Malley has been ruled from the pack to rematch Merab Dvalishvili by the Georgian’s past foe, Henry Cejudo who has called into the question the UFC star’s ability to draw and sell pay-per-views.
Dvalishvili, the current undisputed bantamweight champion, successfully defended his divisional crown for the first time at the beginning of the year, turning in a spectacular unanimous decision win over the unbeaten, Umar Nurmagomedov over the course of five rounds in the co-main event of UFC 311.
Sean O’Malley urged to give up on Merab Dvalishvili title rematch next
And winning spoils from Montana native, O’Malley at a monumental Noche UFC event at the Las Vegas Sphere late last annum, Dvalishvili would likely skirt a rematch with the Contender Series product according ex-champion, Cejudo — who claimed a pairing between the duo again makes very little sense.
