Merab Dvalishvili put an exclamation point on his rivalry with Sean O’Malley with a dominant submission win in the main event of UFC 316. Dvalishvili has put himself in the conversation to be the greatest bantamweight of all-time, and now he’s taken one step closer to that accomplishment following his performance in Newark N.J.
Following UFC 316, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to the card as a whole, Dvalishvili’s performance, a likely showdown with Cory Sandhagen next, and where O’Malley could go following his second straight loss. Additionally, they discuss Kayla Harrison’s title-winning submission of Julianna Pena in the co-main event, the faceoff between Harrison and Amanda Nunes, how big that fight is right now, Pena’s next move, Patchy Mix losing a lopsided decision to Mario Bautista in his UFC debut, other standout moments and performances, and more.
