UFC star Sean O’Malley was looking at the clock during his UFC 269 bout against Raulian Paiva. Looking at him, Cormier hinted that ‘Suga’ might have been tired during the round. As DC’s comments didn’t sit well with the bantamweight star, ‘Suga’ called out the former dual weight champion in the post-fight conference. However, he cleared the air and clarified ‘DC’s misconception about him.

On the DC & RC show, the Montana native said, “I’m Michael Jordan in the 4th and there’s two minutes left. I got to know how much time there is, I gotta know how many points I gotta score, I gotta win the game. It’s always fourth quarter in the fight.”

“It doesn’t matter if it’s first round, second round, third round. I need to know how much time I have left. With the Raulian Paiva fight I hurt him with, I think less than a minute left. You know, I had a good idea of how much time was left in that round…”
