Sean O'Malley lost his UFC title to Merab Dvalishvili last September at the Sphere in Las Vegas, a fight he fought with a torn labrum. O'Malley's coach blamed the Sphere's lighting for hindering his performance. O'Malley admits the venue's hype influenced his decision to fight injured, prioritizing the record-breaking attendance. They rematch at UFC 316 on June 7th, giving O'Malley a chance for revenge. Dvalishvili aims to further solidify his title reign with a second victory over O'Malley.
