**Las Vegas, Nevada -** After a successful debut last year, Noche UFC is back in Sin City, this time taking place at the Sphere and featuring a stacked pay-per-view card headlined by two title fights. The event will showcase a celebration of Mexican and Latin American culture and fighters on Saturday, September 14th.

The main event sees reigning UFC bantamweight champion **Sean O’Malley** defend his title against streaking contender **Merab Dvalishvili**. O’Malley, known for his flashy striking and finishing ability, is coming off a dominant title defense against Marlon Vera. Dvalishvili, on the other hand, is a relentless grappler with a 10-fight winning streak and a relentless work ethic. This clash promises to be a stylistic battle with high stakes.

The co-main event features a trilogy bout between women’s flyweight champion **Alexa Grasso** and former champion **Valentina Shevchenko**. Grasso pulled off an upset victory in their first encounter but the rematch ended in a controversial draw. Now, both fighters are looking to definitively claim the title and establish their dominance over the division.

The rest of the main card features a compelling mix of exciting matchups:

* **Brian Ortega** and **Diego Lopes**, who were originally scheduled to fight at UFC 303, meet with a full training camp behind them. Lopes seeks to continue his rise with a fifth straight victory, while Ortega aims to prove his dominance against non-champions.
* **Daniel Zellhuber** and **Esteban Ribovics**, both DWCS alumni, aim to make a statement on the main card. Both fighters possess exciting styles and are looking to make a name for themselves in the lightweight division.
* **Ronaldo Rodriguez** and **Ode’ Osbourne** kick off the main card in a prospect-versus-veteran clash. Rodriguez seeks to build on his impressive winning streak, while Osbourne hopes to snap a two-fight skid.

The preliminary card features a mix of experienced veterans and up-and-coming prospects, including:

* **Irene Aldana** and **Norma Dumont** in the women’s bantamweight division. Aldana looks to bounce back from her title loss, while Dumont seeks to extend her winning streak.
* **Manuel Torres** and **Ignacio Bahamondes** in a high-octane lightweight showdown. Both fighters are known for their aggressive styles and finishing abilities.
