Who Is the Favorite to Win UFC 306?
The favorite over the months leading up to the fight to win at UFC 306 has been Merab Dvalishvili, but the odds are now exactly level. When the odds opened, Dvalishvili was as high as a -200 favorite, but they have now shifted in favor of O’Malley. Both fighters have identical -110 odds heading into this fight, and it is difficult to see a clear-cut favorite emerging before Saturday night.
Sean O’Malley: Recent Performances and Form
Sean O’Malley has an outstanding 18-1 MMA record, including a 9-1 record in the UFC. His only career loss came against Marlon Vera in 2020, but that was due to a freak injury rather than O’Malley being outclassed. Twelve of O’Malley’s 18 career wins have come via knockout, including his Bantamweight title winning fight against Aljamain Sterling. This will be O’Malley’s second title defense after he first successfully defended the title and avenged his only loss against Marlon Vera earlier this year.
O’Malley uses crisp boxing to hurt his opponents. His ability to land clean, straight punches is like few others, and his 6 foot 4 frame gives him a reach advantage whenever he steps into the cage. Undoubtedly, his takedown defense will be tested, as Merab Dvalishvili will need to get this fight to the mat to win. However, O’Malley has shown he can usually keep the fight on the feet, where he will pick Dvalishvili apart.
Merab Dvalishvili: Recent Performances and Form
Merab Dvalishvili could have had a Bantamweight title shot long ago but elected to wait until his teammate Aljamain Sterling lost his throne. Dvalishvili got off to a rocky start to his UFC career, losing his first two fights with the promotion. However, he has dramatically turned his career around, winning 10 straight fights, most of which in a dominant fashion, to earn this title shot. Most recently, he beat Jose Aldo, Petr Yan, and Henry Cejudo, all by unanimous decision.
Merab Dvalishvili is an absolute nightmare to face off against. He only has one finish in his 10 fight win streak, earning 9 unanimous decision wins along the way. Dvalishvili’s cardio is truly like nothing the UFC has ever seen, as he can keep his foot on the gas for 25 straight minutes. Dvalishvili likes to get his opponent to the mat and control the fight from there. He may lack the finishing abilities of his peers, but when he lays on top of his opponent for an entire round, there can only be one victor.
