Video: UFC 316 Countdown takes an inside look at two title fights, as bantamweight king Merab Dvalishvili attempts to defend his crown against Sean O'Malley, and women's bantamweight queen Julianna Peña puts her belt on the line against Kayla Harrison.

With UFC 316 around the corner, the official Countdown episode pulls us behind the scenes—into gyms, mindsets, and the chaos leading up to one of the year’s biggest cards.

Merab Dvalishvili defends his bantamweight title in a high-pressure rematch against Sean O'Malley. Their first clash left fans arguing, and both guys are walking in with something to prove. Merab brings relentless pace, O'Malley brings sniper timing. It’s a classic pressure vs. precision matchup, and it could go nuclear early. Don’t miss Merab vs. O’Malley 2.

The co-main? Just as spicy. Kayla Harrison is finally making her title run, taking on Julianna Peña, who’s made a habit of shutting down hype trains. Harrison’s judo is world-class, but Peña’s grit is pure chaos—and she’s pulled off bigger shocks before. This could get messy fast. All eyes on Harrison vs. Peña.

UFC 316 might not just be fireworks—it might be a turning point for two divisions. Watch the full Countdown now and get a taste of the storm before the cage door closes.
