UFC 306 faceoff: Sean O'Malley, Merab Dvalishvili have last staredown before Sphere headliner

LAS VEGAS – Sean O'Malley and Merab Dvalishvili had their final bit of pre-fight interaction at UFC 306 ceremonial weigh-ins Friday with one last staredown.

O’Malley (18-1 MMA, 10-1 UFC) will put his bantamweight belt on the line against Dvalishvili (17-4 MMA, 10-2 UFC) in the main event of Noche UFC (pay-per-view, ESPNews, ESPN+) at Sphere in what UFC CEO Dana White has touted to be a one-of-a-kind fight card, which airs on ESPN+ pay-per-view following prelims on ESPNews and ESPN+.

After both made weight earlier in the day, they engaged in the final staredown in front of fans and media. It was intense and both men were locked in. O’Malley looks to log a second consecutive title defense while Dvalishvili looks to capture gold and set the UFC record for longest winning streak in 135-pound history.
