Petr Yan accuses the UFC of showing favoritism toward Sean O’Malley

[Kung Fu Kowboy]

​

Petr thinks UFC gave a present to Omalley as the second title fight after losses:

"Everybody knows UFC gave a present to O'Malley a second time. When I was fighting O'Malley, I beat him. UFC gave him a present there, and now they gave him a title fight. He's a chicken — a guy… pic.twitter.com/WgFzzUU4pF

Petr Yan believes the Ultimate Fighting Championship is biased towards Sean O'Malley.

O’Malley (18-2) will try to regain his bantamweight title against Merab Dvalishvili (19-4) at UFC 317 on June 7 at Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. Yan doesn’t consider O’Malley worthy of a title shot and thinks he is being favored by the UFC.

And that is not new to Yan, 18-5, who believes he was robbed in his split-decision loss against O’Malley in 2022. “No Mercy” thinks O’Malley is a “chicken guy” who is privileged as he is a big draw.

I mean I thought that was common knowledge.

 

[Ube]

He didn’t really need to mention something so obvious

 

[Sycho Sid]

Saying the UFC fixed the outcome of their first fight is stupid for a lot of reasons.

But also, yeah no shit O'malley gets a lot of favoritism

 

[Trabaho]

I´m a Petr Yan fan and he won that fight.

 

[DougieJones]

How do you say "No shit, Sherlock" in Russian?

 

[KO Shotz]

 

[Fight Professor]

 

[Hymen Crusher]

That's for sure and yes he was robbed in their fight. He won three rounds

 

[Thepaintbucket]

Tell us something we don't know Petr

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

 

[dc007]

Petr lost that fight

 

[fortheo]

Petr isn't exactly breaking any news here lol

 

[Cowboy Kurt Angle]

Duh if UFC had a pair of nuts they would have re booked Yan against, O’Malley or give O’Malley Sandy, but nope give O’Malley a rematch, and make Petr fight #13 Marcus McGhee

 

[Ladder Master]

Merab vs Omalley 2 is solid meh material.

Wow talk about UFC privilege this is getting outta hand.

— Dominick Reyes (@DomReyes) October 22, 2022

That is one of the absolute biggest robberies I have seen. What the actual fuck.

[Siver!]

They're only going to bury Sean, it's kinda dumb to be honest.

 

[TempleoftheDog]

Accusing the UFC of fixing that fight was not smart. People think they got robbed all the time. But they don’t accuse the UFC of fixing fights. There could be consequences for saying that publicly.

As for the favourtism shown to certain fighters. Yeah, no shit, buddeh. Who DOESN’T know that?

 

[Pancake Sprawl]

you know what he doesn't mention though? how he couldn't beat Aljo and O'Malley sparked him easy. sure, they favored O'Malley, this is some Capt. Obvious shit fans knew for years, but he also did something you couldn't do in 2 tries with just 1.

Why would Yan waste his time participating in MMA Math that ultimately disparages himself?
Also Yan was having his way with Aljo before the dumb knee in the first fight. Since you’re talking about people not mentioning things.

Suga Sean - Thanks Dana!
