UFC star Sean O’Malley is one of the promotion’s surging names who has realized that he needs to be active away from fighting to remain popular and take home massive paychecks from the UFC. To achieve this goal, he has set up podcasts to ensure he stays in the public sphere throughout the year. Besides podcasts, ‘Sugar‘ ensures he balances his MMA training and social appearances, where he meets many famous people. 

In one episode of ‘The BrO’Malley Show‘, Sean O’Malley spoke about the time he met four-time NBA champion Shaquille O’Neal’s son, Myles. It was a fact ‘Sugar‘ didn’t know at the time. 

The UFC’s #12 ranked bantamweight fighter said, “I’m in LA at one time. I’m in LA partying, I meet this kid named Myles O’Neal. Cool as fu*k. I had no idea Shaq was his dad until like yesterday, I was listening to the podcast…like ‘oh my boy Myles in LA’…Then I looked him up on Instagram and I was like. Yo, that’s his f**king dad.”

When asked if 25-year-old Myles hoops, akin to his brother Shareef, ‘Sugar‘ replied, “No, he’s a DJ dude.”

“He does shows with his dad and sh*t, DJs, and sh*t…that’s so sick.” The co-hosts even watched a video of the millionaire DJing with his father.

Shaquille O’Neal, reportedly DJed as a teenager and seemed completely in his element in all his appearances as a DJ on Myles’ account.
