Sean O'Malley, UFC bantamweight champion, explained why he doesn't want to fight Alex Volkanovski, the promotion's champion in the featherweight division.

“A fight with Topuria would be interesting to me. And I don’t want to fight with Volkanovski. Remember how Gaethje explained why he didn’t want to fight Holloway? I have about the same thoughts about the fight with the Wolf. I like the wolf, he's a good dude. I can’t say that I have any animosity towards Elijah, but I wouldn’t mind fighting with him. I think it would be an interesting fight,” Shawn said.

Let us remind you that O'Malley will hold his next fight at the organization's 299th tournament, and his opponent will be Marlon Vera.
