The “Suga Show” returns Saturday night, but it’s more of a remake than a continuation. 

Gone is the old Sean O’Malley — the weed-smoking social-media maven — with the metaphorical starring role recast as one undistracted by his own public persona and focused more keenly on the two things most important to him now: family and reclaiming UFC glory. 

Well, there’s one thing that actually supersedes becoming the bantamweight champion in Saturday’s UFC 316 main event at Prudential Center, and that’s settling the score with the man who beat him for that title in September: Merab Dvalishvili. 

“Even if Merab would have lost to Umar [Nurmagomedov, in January], part of me just wanted the Merab fight back,” O’Malley told reporters during media day Wednesday in Morristown, N.J.
