Sean O’Malley believes the former two-division champion Conor McGregor might go for the belt after his return. ‘Suga’ thinks Charles Oliveira will be a good name for McGregor’s return to the octagon.

‘Suga’ is one of the best bantamweight fighters in the promotion right now. The latter is on a two-fight win streak. He is a big fan of Conor McGregor and has always praised his fighting style.

Recently, in an interview with Helen Yee, ‘Suga’ discussed Conor McGregor’s next opponent for his comeback fight and few other things. While replying to the question, Sean O’Malley said, “Great question. I think he says he will fight for the belt when he comes back, right I don’t know. 155 I think it is a good weight class. I mean Chandler, Gaethje, all those guys are such tough fights.”

He added, “I mean, I think one of the better fights for him would have been Oliviera, but you know he’s not going to get that fight, maybe Dustin beats Oliviera. Oliviera vs Conor, I don’t know. A good question, I have no idea. I guarantee whoever he fights I’m going to be excited for.”

Conor McGregor is recovering from the gruesome leg injury he faced against Dustin Poirier in his trilogy fight at UFC 264. Meanwhile, Sean O’Malley is riding on the back of two victories. His most recent win was against Kris Moutinho at the UFC 264, where he shared the card with McGregor.
