Since his entry into the UFC In 2017 via Dana White’s Contender Series, Sean O’Malley has mostly put on spectacular performances, so far. In 2021 alone, “Sugar” Sean won all of his three fights via TKO, all of which he won post-fight bonuses for.
The 27-year-old O’Malley is currently slated for the toughest test of his career when he faces number nine-ranked Pedro Munhoz at UFC 276 this weekend. But even if he emerges victorious, he feels his detractors will still have something to criticize him about.
“I could submit Khabib and people will be like, ‘yeah, but…’ They’d say something,” O’Malley said during Wednesday’s media day.
