Sean O’Malley Pushes for Petr Yan Rematch at UFC White House After UFC 324 Booking

Final decisions for the June White House card rest with Dana White, with plans expected in February.

Overview

Fresh off reclaiming the bantamweight title at UFC 323, Petr Yan is the division’s champion again.
Sean O’Malley, coming off two losses to Merab Dvalishvili, is slated to face Song Yadong at UFC 324 on Jan. 24/25 in Las Vegas, the UFC’s first Paramount+ event.
O’Malley publicly vowed to beat Yadong and then target Yan for June in Washington, citing a renewed drive and their controversial 2022 split-decision result.
Merab Dvalishvili has been urged to recover after UFC 323 damage, with a Yan trilogy under discussion but not scheduled.
O’Malley argues he fits the White House spotlight as other headliners remain uncertain, while matchmaking for the card will be set by the UFC and revealed in February.
