The UFC’s bantamweight fighter Sean O’Malley is slowly becoming more popular after every octagon appearance. Fight fans love the “Suga Show” for his crazy knockout wins and his fun-loving personality. O’Malley recently appeared in an interview with the former UFC double champion, Daniel Cormier.

However, after the interview, the fighter revealed that he felt that Cormier wanted to see him lose. He said this in another podcast show, and also took a dig at the commentator and compared himself to Daniel Cormier’s biggest rival, Jon Jones. O’Malley said, “I think DC and I get along, but it is what it is. I think he truly, deep down, wants to see me lose.”

He added, “For whatever it is. I already said it, it’s because I remind him of Jon Jones because I’m 6’6. DC wants to see me lose.” When he heard about this, Cormier seemed pretty shocked on camera.

Daniel Cormier responded to O’Malley’s remarks on a recent episode of the DC & RC show. He spoke about how O’Malley’s performance does not affect him and also praised the fighter’s skills in the octagon. DC said, “It doesn’t really make me feel anything because the reality is like you said Ryan, my accomplishments are all on my own.”

He added, “I don’t care enough about Sean O’Malley to care if he wins or loses because, like you said, it doesn’t really affect me. I like the kid, I think the kid’s a fantastic little fighter. I think he’s tough. But I got eight championship belts at home…The reality is I don’t care if Sean wins or if he loses. I don’t want to see a man lose. I think that he’s good for the sport.”
