Former undisputed bantamweight champion, Sean O’Malley claims he was the victim of mistaken identity over the course of this week — with a “random lady” allegedly mistaking the Noche UFC headliner for Dublin superstar, Conor McGregor during an encounter.
O’Malley, who headlined Noche UFC earlier this month, suffered an upset unanimous decision loss against surging Georgian rival, Merab Dvalishvili in his sophomore Octagon defeat, dropping his undisputed bantamweight crown as a result.
As for former two-division champion, McGregor, the mixed martial arts star has been out of action for more than three years, most recently fracturing his left tibia and fibula in a first round doctor’s stoppage TKO loss against Dustin Poirier.
