The word that probably resonates when one thinks of Sean O’Malley is flamboyant. The new bantamweight champion of the UFC is skinny, with his multicolored hair, ice-cold calmness, and supreme self-confidence. Standing out from all other fighters in the UFC, this has led some to even dub him the next Conor McGregor.
While O’Malley may be on top with his win over the man he called the greatest bantamweight ever in Aljamain Sterling, many feel he is yet to prove himself as a champion. But the Montana native has proven he has a good heart and the fans agree.
