Merab Dvalishvili, UFC bantamweight fighter, commented on the outcome of the fight Petr Yan - Sean O'Malley.
“A close fight, but I need to rewatch it, because we were preparing for the Sterling fight, warming up, and at that time their fight was on TV. I watched him inattentively, but from what I managed to notice, I note that Peter did more damage, hit hard. If the judges gave the victory to O'Malley because of the damage done, then perhaps this is the right decision, because I saw that Peter translated him, but Sean and the stalls tried to attack. Also, as far as I know, O'Malley landed more punches. If this is true, then he won due to the damage caused. Again, I need to rewatch the fight."
Recall that O'Malley defeated Yan by a split decision at UFC 280, which took place on October 22 in Abu Dhabi.
