Wow! Has anyone seen the 101 reasons wrestling documentary? O'Haire is profiled in it and talks about the business Candidly. For whatever reason, I really liked O'Haire. As a young athlete, he was full of potential... Shame.

Yes I saw it a few years ago and remember O'Haire having a lot of camera time during it. I liked him more as well after watching it.

RIP
 
They said that Sean O' Haire committed suicide. R.I.P O'Haire.
 
very sad. too young, RIP, condolences to family *bows respectfully*
 
He wanted to burn out... Not fade away.
 
Meltzer told a funny story about O'Haire and THE BEAN on the most recent Observer and Observer Radio.


Even though their fight at PRIDE 32 was in Vegas under NSAC rules, the two made a "gentleman's agreement" a few hours before the fight that THE BEAN wouldn't punch Sean in the face if Sean did not kick THE BEAN in the head.

Well, the fight began and Sean tried to head kick THE BEAN within the first few seconds. This led to THE BEAN saying "fuck it" and proceeding to punch O'Haire in the face a bunch of times, leading to the quick win.

Even though such colluding is 100% illegal under Unified Rules, PRIDE officials couldn't help themselves LOL.
