Dvalishvili vs O'Malley 2 - 316 - 6/7

It was probably the shit talk. Didn’t she declare herself Queen or something?

I’m betting a year’s wages on a decision.

I don’t think that’s a good bet

In WMMA, it’s always a good bet.

Kelvin Gastelum and Joe Pyfer didn’t get to fight at UFC Mexico. Now the middleweights try it all over again with the matchup rebooked for UFC 316 at Prudential Center in Newark, N.J. on June 7.

Multiple people with knowledge of the promotion’s plans confirmed the news to MMA Fighting on Monday after Pyfer’s head coach John Marquez first revealed the new date on MMA Today.

The matchup was previously scrapped just hours before the March 29 event with Pyfer falling ill and unable to compete that night. Pyfer later unleashed a tirade aimed at Mexico while vowing to never fight there again after he got sick and it wiped out his matchup against Gastelum.

“I don’t care if it’s offensive to you, I will never go back to that country,” Pyfer said on his Instagram stories. “I did everything right: I slept in a tent, I did all this work to still get sick.

“Some people are saying it wasn’t the food, that I got altitude sickness. I’m not a fcking geographic fcking elevation fcking scientists, but I was told as long as I acclimated — which I did for two months, slept in a tent on the fcking floor — I did everything I could to prepare. And if that’s what altitude and elevation is, f*ck that country. I will never fight there again. Shit hole. Not going back.”

Pyfer won’t have to go back to Mexico; instead, he’ll enjoy New Jersey as part of the UFC’s return to the east coast in June.

The upcoming UFC 316 fight card is headlined by men’s bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili running it back with Sean O’Malley while Julianna Peña puts her women’s bantamweight title up for grabs against Kayla Harrison in the co-main event.

Kayla by VIOLENCE.

In a recent appearance on The Ariel Helwani Show, Harrison addressed her relationship with her former employers.

“I have no ill will, nothing truly negative to say, but it was time for me to go,” Harrison said. “Why would they [support me]? I think they’re really bitter, one person in particular, but I don’t spend any time thinking about it…it’s always the people in power that when they don’t get their way, they struggle with that.

“Donn is still mad at me or something, I don’t know…But I always try to stay off social media.”

Despite Harrison’s comments about avoiding her social media pages, it didn’t take long for Davis to address her remarks and extend a surprising olive branch ahead of UFC 316.

In a recent tweet, Davis reminisced on his first meeting with Harrison ahead of her upcoming UFC title fight.
