The Noche UFC event at the Las Vegas Sphere is already packing a punch even before the first bell rings. Bantamweight champion Sean O’Malley and his opponent Merab Dvalishvili recently gave us a taste of their upcoming bantamweight showdown. The two had a not-so-brief encounter at the face-off for the Riyadh Season Noche UFC promo.
The two fierce competitors engaged in seven face-offs for the perfect face-off promo. Dvalishvili, known for his relentless wrestling, had some fighting words for O’Malley’s coach. He accused O’Malley’s coach, Tim Welch, of trash-talking him and warned him that he would get slapped. O’Malley talked about this on his YouTube channel.
“We probably did seven or eight different face-offs… A lot of chirps were thrown over at Merab, and I feel like I might be in his head a little bit. Merab told me to tell my coach to quit talking… He said, ‘I’m gonna slap him’ and I said you definitely should try,” stated O’Malley.
This exchange added another layer of intrigue to an already fascinating matchup. O’Malley’s timing and knockout power, facing off against Dvalishvili’s unrelenting pressure. The flashy striker versus the unstoppable grappler will be locked in the Octagion come September 14. It’s a clash of styles that has fans salivating.
Beneath the humor and trash talk, there’s a serious undertone. Both men know what’s at stake. For O’Malley, it’s a chance to cement his championship status. For Dvalishvili, it’s the opportunity he’s been grinding towards for years. Plus, the addition of a historic venue adds more to this fight in terms of its power to fuel the UFC to new heights.
