UFC 316 will showcase two big title fights when the promotion returns to Newark, New Jersey, in on June 7.
The promotion announced Tuesday that the reigning bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili will headline the event in a rematch with Sean O'Malley at the Prudential Center. In the co-main event, the women's bantamweight crown will also be on the line when Julianna Pena begins her second title reign with a defense against Kayla Harrison.
Dvalishvili and O'Malley first met at UFC 306 in September 2024, as the featured attraction atop the famous "one-and-only" UFC event in the Las Vegas Sphere.
