As the Octagon awaits his next performance, fans eagerly anticipate witnessing the next chapter in Sean O’Malley’s extraordinary journey. But the bantamweight’s back-and-forth beef with Aljamain Sterling, coupled with their upcoming bout has definitely frenzied fans. O’Malley’s recent tweet insinuated yet another spark in the beef. What’s surprising is that, amidst all this, a ‘pretty sick’ submission video of ‘Suga’ has gone viral on social media.

O’Malley first burst onto the scene during his tenure on Dana White’s Contender Series in 2017, where he delivered a stunning knockout victory with a highlight-reel-worthy walk-off finish. Since then, he has continued to captivate audiences with his exhilarating performances, securing an ever-growing fanbase along the way.

In a recent Twitter video, Sean O’ Malley was seen having a gala time defending himself against Takanori Gomi at the Quintet Ultra. The Japanese MMA artist was clearly no match for Sean’s skills or prowess. The video showed O’Malley easing into a guillotine choke win over  Gomi in less than three minutes.

At the Quintet Ultra, the bantamweight fought three bouts – first, he beat Gomi, then went on to lose to Hector Lombard via ankle lock in under a minute. His next fight ended with a draw against Gilbert Melendez, concluding the competition with a 1-1-1 record.
