Famous MMA veteran, former UFC fighter Urijah Faber believes that the championship Shauna O'Malley has a positive effect on the development of the bantamweight division and the development of the promotion.
“This is a big lift for the division. We need stars, and O'Malley is a star right now. People will always criticize, it happened to me too: “Oh, you got the title shot because...” I always said that people greatly underestimate Shawn because he acts casual and relaxed. From the conversations we had, I understood that he is a very calculating and cold-blooded person. Yes, he has an advantage, money sticks to him, but at the same time he is a real fighter,” said Uriah.
Let's remember that O'Malley became the champion by finishing Aljamain Sterling in August of this year.
