Sean O’Malley warned Mackenzie Dern, but not UFC before pulling out blunt cage-side

Sometimes the secret to getting away with things is all about just having the guts to do them. Break the rules just right, and nobody seems to mind.

That’s the note Sean O’Malley took when Nate Diaz pulled out a joint at UFC Fight Night: Cowboy vs. Medeiros, back in February. The younger Diaz got a few seconds of air time during the UFC’s FS1 broadcast and used the moment to ready a blunt and get out his lighter. So, when noted marijuana aficionado O’Malley got the chance for his own cage-side UFC seats, he knew just what to do.
