O'Malley coach


From MMAfighting

”On Wednesday, O’Malley announced on ESPN’s DC & RC that he’s fighting Petr Yanat UFC 280, which takes place Oct. 22 in Abu Dhabi. MMA Fighting subsequently confirmed with a person with knowledge of the promotion’s plans that the fight has been verbally agreed upon, but contracts haven’t been issued.

Yan’s manager Daniel Rubenstein reiterated that stance while speaking on Wednesday’s edition of The MMA Hour, and that the fight is not 100 percent done as of yet.”

Wow, if true that card is getting stacked. And I’m legit surprised to see O’Malley take this step up in competition.
 
Won’t believe this until the UFC announces it. O’Malley saying it on his own means nothing yet — might just be trying to pressure Yan into taking the fight. Which he probably won’t, considering Yan is ranked #1 and O’Malley is #13.

Big O’Malley fan here, but I don’t like his chances. Besides, I thought it was not too long ago that he was saying he was content to fight lower-level guys?
