UFC Bantamweight Champion Sean O'Malley explained why he intends to hold the first defense of his title against the sixth number in the division rating Marlon Vera, and not against Meraba Dvalishvililocated ...
“I already knocked out Merab on August 19, the day I knocked out Sterling. It is the same. They are everywhere together, constantly walking by the hand - this is one and the same person. Therefore, I knocked out both on August 19
I called Vera before I knocked out Aljamain. This fight must take place, I see it that way. I want to fight him, but be that as it may, I am ready to knock out anyone they put in front of me, ”O’Malley said on The MMA Hour.
Recall that in August 2020, O'Malley lost to Vera by technical knockout in the first round. This defeat is the only one in the American's career so far.
