Sean O'Malley might not be the next person to fight for the UFC bantamweight title, but he expects that championship gold will be on the line when he makes his Octagon return.
]. If you’re the champ you should be fighting consistently. You just had a somewhat easy fight against T.J. The people want to see the champ fight. I think Henry vs. Aljo in March makes sense if Henry really is serious about coming back, and then I’d like to fight the winner of that. It’s hard to say exactly what’s going to happen next, but I’m waiting to see where that goes.”
O’Malley is coming off the biggest win of his career to date, a split-decision victory against former bantamweight kingat UFC 280. Shortly after that victory, “Suga” met with UFC president Dana White and matchmaker Sean Shelby. After those talks, O’Malley confirmed it’s “accurate” to say that a belt will be on the line in his next promotional appearance, though it could come after a proposed Sterling vs. Cejudo clash.
"I'm the biggest fight -- obviously," O'Malley said."It doesn't take a genius to figure that out; anybody I fight is going to be the biggest fight in the division. I don't know what to tell him.” O’Malley is confident that the numbers from UFC 280 back up that claim. In fact, the 28-year-old believes his appeal could rival — or surpass — anyone in the promotion.
“If you look at the numbers of UFC 280, that was the ‘Suga Show,’” he said. “Islam [Makhachev] vs. Charles [Oliveira] was massive, but if you really look at the data, that was my card. I sold that one more than anyone on that. I believe I’m pretty much the biggest star in the UFC right now…or have the potential to be and I’m right there. I could go main event a pay-per-view and do pretty good right now. It’s been a long time coming but it also happened somewhat fast.
