Sean O’Malley, a former UFC champion, has identified the most formidable foe he has encountered in the sport.
Sean O’Malley will try to reclaim his gold this weekend, something that many former champions have found difficult to accomplish in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. He will attempt to do so against Merab Dvalishvili, who stole it from him the previous year. Even while “The Machine” is generally seen as the favorite, everyone is aware that “Suga” has the strength and accuracy to alter a battle at any time.
Basically, this fight is a must-see. Naturally, such is usually the case for O’Malley, who since his debut on the Contender Series has swiftly established himself as one of the company’s most well-known figures. He has faced some of the best in that time, and it has been an interesting career to watch.
O’Malley revealed in a recent interview who specifically took the hardest hit against him in his career to date.
O’Malley discloses the severely hit
“Petr Yan’s left hand in Abu Dhabi (is the hardest I’ve ever been hit),” O’Malley told Vic Blends.
“I cracked him, boom, dropped him with a right hand. I switched stances, he switched stances at the same time and just catches me with a boom, left hand, turns my chin, that was the hardest I’ve ever been hit,” O’Malley continued.
