Dana White admits the UFC is putting on such a unique show at Sphere that there’s uncertainty surrounding its success. UFC 306 (pay-per-view, ESPNews, ESPN+ ) takes place Saturday at Sphere in Las Vegas and is headlined by a bantamweight title fight between champion Sean O’Malley (18-1 MMA, 10-1 UFC) and challenger Merab Dvalishvili (17-4 MMA, 10-2 UFC). The event, which has been branded as Noche UFC in honor of Mexican Independence Day, will feature just 10 bouts, but White said the UFC plans on giving fans an experience between each fight. “We are going to put on this unbelievable entertainment event,” White said Monday on ESPN’s “First Take.” “There’s a movie that’s going to run in the Sphere, and there are chapters to this movie. So, before each fight, there’s a movie, and you will be focused on the Sphere and the screen, then the fighters will walk out, and then the fight is the star of the show
