O'Malley spoke out about Makhachev and Puryear's fight

UFC lightweight champion Sean O'Malley shared his impressions of the fight between Islam Makhachev and Dustin Porier.

Last weekend at UFC 302, the Dagestani defeated the American with a choke hold in the fifth round, defending his lightweight title.

"In the first round, Islam had a takedown, took his back, and I thought - that's it, it's over. But Dustin didn't give up and turned the fight into a chopping match. I liked the way Porier threw body punches in the clinch. Perhaps in the end Makhachev had less strength than Puryear. But Islam managed to win," O'Malley said on his YouTube channel.
