Morning Report: Dana White says Sean O’Malley needs ‘a few more fights’ before a bout with Cody Garbrandt

At UFC 250, the bantamweight division was on display with two of the biggest names in the division turning in highlight reel knockouts. First, rising star Sean O’Malley flat-lined former WEC champion Eddie Wineland in the first round. Then, shortly afterward, former UFC champion Cody Garbrandt finally got back in the win column with a scintillating buzzer-beater knockout of Raphael Assuncao. Both men were rewarded for their efforts for Performance of the Night bonuses and in the aftermath, a rivalry began to form about who had the better KO.
