Frankie Edgar, a former UFC lightweight champion, spoke out about the prospects of the promotion's current bantamweight champion Shauna O'Malley reach the level of the former champion of the organization in two weight categories Conor McGregor.

“His next fight (with Marlon Vera - note) will show a lot. If you want to be at the top, you have to win at the right time. Conor had such a special talent for maintaining his reputation. If Sean continues to do what he does, he has a chance to become a star. But all these guys act like big stars, and I doubt that any of them can sell PPV like McGregor did...”

Let us remind you that O'Malley's confrontation with Vera will take place on March 9 and will headline UFC 299.
