News Sean O’ Malley: Humbled

RyanRAW said:
Chito was being cautious started pressuring him and ate up his leg with a single kick. Sean wasn't durable enough get dominated it was one strike and he got swiftly defeated.

That is very concerning.

He rolled his ankle (twice) and neither happened from any strikes.

O'Malley beats Cheetos Rivera 99/100 times.

Wish him a speedy recovery and hope he gets back in there sooner rather than later. He's talented and fun to watch.

There are levels to this game, Suga.
Watch that mouth moving forward.

What the hell did he even say that everyone is telling him to "watch his mouth"? He was just being confident in his skills. He isn't a trash talker. You guys act like he was on Conor level of trash talk and really it was just a fighter trying to keep his confidence.

I know you all think you won something because this kid lost. It's not like he's a total asshole though. I don't really think he's quite the trash talker you all make him out to be.

Meanwhile, enjoy "your victory".

Nothing wrong with confidence. But he did tweet he was gonna "put Chito's bitch ass lights out" and basically called Cody a bum when Cody never said anything about him at all. Also talked shit to Yan on Twitter. He talked a BIG game for a guy that has never beaten anybody close to the top 10 and got a reality check last night.

If you talk THAT BIG you're gonna get all the backlash likes he's getting today. He even posted on Instagram with the caption, "humbled." He knows he bit off more than he can chew.

Is normal.
 
sean o'malley is not a fighter. he trains and gets in the octagon and fights.

chito vera is a fighter, with a vicious and complete game.

big difference.

Besides his leg didn't just "give out", Chito kicked it out.

Is there a GIF of this strike? According to the commentary and the live replay he rolled his ankle. And based on his interview after the fight O'Malley suggested this injury was related to a previous foot fracture.

Even Chito didn't try to claim he had damaged O'Malley with a kick. He said he thought he had checked a kick of O'Malley's and that that may have been responsible for the damage.

Thinking he could beat Conor, who is 3 weight classes above him, cuz being lighter makes him faster and he's good at not getting hit

I never did understand why I was expected to root for and worship O'Malley just for being a pot smoker. Even if I don't think weed is "evil" it still doesn't make any sense.
 
So was it a calf kick or did he twist his leg moving backwards that caused the injury?

Pretty good gif in the first post.
 
cheeto puff didn't do anything to his leg by the way it was a freak accident. Cheeto is a can

Did anyone really think O'Malley was losing the fight before his leg gave out? This wasn't exactly the equivalent of Silva's loss in the second go round with Weidman.

His leg didnt give out, Chito struck a nerve & made it go limp. This has happened many times over the past few years, are you new to mma? Do you even trane UFC?

Here's a brief video that goes over it.

Others have pointed this out as well.

Its uncommon but it seemed to occur as a result of a kick to the knee. As those videos point out it happened before to Cejudo gainst MM in their second fight, to Jamie Varner against James Krauss, and Michael Chandler against Brent Primus.

I doubt Vera intentionally tried for this given how rare it is but it does seem to have occurred as a result of his kick.
