Before Their Hotly Anticipated Rematch, Take A Look At The Roads “Suga” Sean O’Malley And Marlon “Chito” Vera Took To UFC 299: O’Malley vs Vera 2
When “Suga” Sean O’Malley and Marlon “Chito” Vera met in the co-main event at UFC 292: Miocic vs Cormier 3, the general MMA fanbase was as excited for the two young bantamweights to do battle nearly as much as they were for the conclusion of an epic heavyweight trilogy.
That spoke to not only the skills of the two 135ers, but also the hype around them, particularly around O’Malley. Perhaps the most hyped fighter to come off Dana White’s Contender Series to that point, O’Malley was taking a jump in competition in his fifth Octagon appearance.
