The Georgian superstar earned the title with a unanimous decision victory over O'Malley in September 2024. Dvalishvili successfully defended the crown from Umar Nurmagomedov in January.

O'Malley hasn't climbed back into the octagon since losing his title, but he will be determined to make amends in Newark this weekend.

Also on the card, Julianna Peña faces Kayla Harrison for the Women's Bantamweight title.
