[chardog]

sean was doing good with the Ryan Garcia approach, now going to the deep end, like ryan garcia fighting tank, wow

 

[Last Falconry]

He’s gonna die. Lol. Lmao

 

[HeDidn'tWantTheFight]

Sean in round 2

 

[CashMoney1991]

Yan should easily win card looks solid doe

sean was doing good with the Ryan Garcia approach, now going to the deep end, like ryan garcia fighting tank, wow

I think it was beginning to hurt his brand a bit though. He had his first "good" opponent since Vera at the last event, and it was kind of an afterthought. He had become the clown who crushes a can on 2-3 PPV main cards a year, whereas there was a HUGE hypetrain back in 2020.

 

[Reffson]

Is that what you call beating the S out of someone? lol

Made him quit, faking an eye-poke. The ref gave Munhoz a break too when he acted like he was kicked in the balls. It was a matter of time because Munhoz was afraid to step into Sean's power range. Just the facts.

 

[Cowboy Kurt Angle]

Are we in the twilight zone

 

[TheAlliance]

My god this fight is going to be insane!!!!!!

 

[kellier]

Phenomenal

Sean has done nothing for me to believe he can compete with this type of competition. Unless he has like the greatest fight camp of all time and improved a ton, he’s gonna get out classed heavily here.

 

[Guy LeDouche]

This is going to end in DQ or NC and the result will be O’Malley gets a titleshot afterwords
But I’ll believe this is made when it’s official. It’s still up in the air.

 

[dittohead84]

Ya never know..

 

[Nathan LaMontagne]

Lol holy shit is this real life??

We still have months to go.
Also it's not official yet

Not saying it will happen or is planned.
Fight doesn't go through.
O malley treats it as a win.
O Malley pulls out from injury.
Then gets to say oh I tried to fight the best. Blah blah blah.
If Yan pulls out, O malley will treat it as a win, just like the Pedro fight, Rickson style.

 

[Phisher]

If the fight happens, all respect to O'Malley.

Massive step up in competition. Right into the fire.

"Just the facts" hahaha how deluded can one get. Have you seen the list of people Muhoz has fought?

 

[El Fernas]

Props for taking such fight.

Will watch.

This.

poodle bouta get the shit kicked out of him

And this.

Apparently Yan’s side wants it to be a 5-round fight

Has enough name value for 5 rounds, but as of right now it seems to be listed as a 3 round card opener, its on PPV but this should probably be better as a solid fight night main event instead, not an APEX card but a real card somewhere.

 

[Dr.Phil is in my closet]

Jesus this is worse than khamzat diaz
How does O'Malley possibly win this??

 

[snackgod]

Its both parties.

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.

nate vs dustin both verbally agreed agreed an the fight wasnt signed offical. i believe yan would of signed a bout agreeement but i dont believe sean cause last week he said i want to fight henry in vegas 2.

 

[rellikoge]

How did Sean go from wanting to fight unranked dudes to fighting the best BW in the world? He must've gotten paid son!
