O'Malley named his next opponent after the fight with Vera

UFC Bantamweight Champion Sean O'Malley said that under certain circumstances in the second half of this year he could fight for the belt in the featherweight division.

“If Topuria beats Volkanovski, and I beat Vera, then I’ll fight Ilia. Whether you guys agree with this or not, I see it very clearly. And that's what the UFC thinks - I'm already potentially a big star.

If Ilya thinks this is an easy fight, then why doesn’t he fight a guy who has a big name, who speaks well, and who is easy to beat?” the American reasoned on his YouTube channel.

Let us remind you that on February 17 at the UFC 298 tournament in Anaheim, Topuria will try to take the featherweight belt from Alexander Volkanovski. O’Malley, in turn, will defend his title in a fight with Marlon Vera on March 9 at UFC 299 in Miami.
