One of the UFC’s most exciting young talents has his next fight booked.
During an appearance on Ariel Helwani’s MMA Show, Sean O’Malley revealed that he will be facing Jose Quinonez in a bantamweight bout at UFC 229 in Las Vegas on Oct. 6. UFC 229 takes place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and is headlined by a blockbuster lightweight championship tilt between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor.
O’Malley rose to prominence thanks to a first-round knockout of Alfred Khashakyan on Season 1 of Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series.
