O'malley is the first modern looking champion and this is going to explode the ufc fan base numbers

[KanoKanito]

We never had a good looking and modern looking champion that is aimed at Gen Z new fans. Ufc was in desperate need for this in order to expand their business . Until now vast majority of ufc fanbase was gen x. O'Malley is going to be bigger for the ufc than Conor and Ronda combined.

Can't wait to see him fight Merab or Sandy.

If only he would been around for early open weight days. UFC could be bigger than women's cornhole.

Aljo is better looking, IMO. No homo.

Wait until he comes out as pansexual and truly begins to live his truth, truthfully.

I get what OP is saying..
O'Malley's image and presentation is clearly speaking to gen z. The hair, the stoopid face tats, a skinny gamer..
Sean is definitely gonna make the UFC a lot of money and he's great for their business.

This is what he means by "modern looking".

Modern?

Degenerate-looking, more like.

I honestly think his hairstyle and thick gold chain trigger the hell out of these klanboys (hence all the hate). Hes going for a retro 1980s New York look

Turns out all MMA needed to really go mainstream in the early 2000s was an emo fighter.
