Paiva vs Suga Sean thoughts ?

It's literally a tailor made match up for Sean O'Malley. Natural flyweight, who should have lost to Zalgas at flyweight a couple fights ago.

The only problem is, O'Malley isn't that good. I think this is a gimme fight that's meant to make O'Malley look good, especially after his upset win over Philips where he was a HUGE underdog, which means not many people thought he was that good.

I think O'Malley is supposed to win this and finish this guy. The only problem is Paiva is probably better than some may think, and O'Malley isn't that good.
 
No, you were completely right. If that wasn't a 10-8, what is?
Always made me wonder if allowing .5s in the scoring would help at all. Where judges might be inclined to give a 10-8.5 instead of just settling on a 10-9 because they don't want to go all the way with a 10-8. Might help give at least a little more credit to dominant rds where some of them just end up with stock 10-9's.

Exactly how I see it, well put.
 
I think Sean is gonna win by 3rd round tko. Paiva is a crazy midget that throws windmills
 
O malley gunna have to finish him quick …. If it goes to the 3rd or hits the mat - I think Paiva can win it !
 
I haven't ever seen Paiva fight that I can remember. What is his fighting style? What's he good at? I kinda expected him to be another sacrificial lamb to Sean. He's good?
That kyler fight was a banger iirc
 
I see O'malley winning the first round dominantly and then surviving till the end if he doesn't get a ko.
He will probably take a 10-8 in the first and then edge another round, but controversially win.

If he gets finished, I 100% expect him to say he broke his foot or hand with the first strike thrown(whilst continuing to throw it) before making 1 million excuses and contuning to say he was undefeated.

I want to see him on the ground again and I think if Paiva wins it's by grouund and pound.
