Sean O’Malley, 27, has Irish roots, and it’s not just evident from his last name. His ability to be seen reminds us of the other Irish in MMA. True, if Conor McGregor took on the image of a more brutal fighter, then O’Malley feels good in the role of a teenager or the leader of an ultra-modern pop group. True MMA fans might ignore it, but it’s impossible to: O’Malley has 15 wins in 16 fights (the only loss was through injury), five UFC entertainment bonuses, 11 knockout wins and a great love for the flamboyant. costumes and hairstyles during the week preceding the battle. His roundhouse kick knockouts came to MMA from kickboxing, which he first entered at the age of 15.
– Wrestling seemed very boring to me, and I didn’t do it until I was 19. It wasn’t until I moved into MMA that I started training wrestling with some really good fighters. But in general, I was more into basketball, kickboxing or something else, – the fighter said in an interview with .
During the conversation, he tries on a new suit, constantly moves around the room and puts the phone somewhere. O’Malley is competing against Petr Yan (61.2kg) and has to face a guy who is fundamentally different in level from his previous rivals. Pedro Munoz has brought fights with former and future UFC champions to court decisions, despite losing them. Munoz’s MMA record is 19 wins and 7 losses.
– It is believed that social networks have directly influenced your popularity. However, today more and more people call them evil. What do you think of them?
– I like social networks. I don’t know, I’m not sure I could do without it.
– Your next opponent, of course, loses you in number of subscribers (O’Malley has 2.3 million; Munoz has 75,000), but as if it were the first serious test for you. And what do you think?
“I think I have a tough fight ahead of me. But Petr Yan would be a tougher opponent.
– You always look very bright before fights, you use different images. Is there a costume you don’t like or would use twice?
– Not. I always want to change them, and I do that, I change them randomly.
– Do you think that Peter Yan likes your haircuts and your style of dress?
Peter is jealous of me. Because I’m better than him, bigger than him – it’s because of those things. But I love Peter. He is happy.
– Can you imagine people dressing like you, for example, in his hometown in Siberia?
– I think so. I think Peter needs to try on some of my clothes too.
– What do you think can happen to a man with your hair in Russia if he walks around the city at night?
“Maybe he will win a lot of girls.
“You were born in a small town in the state of Montana. Is it possible to get in trouble there for such a hairstyle?
I don’t think there will be any problems.
– Was there a situation where you were promised trouble on the street for pink hair?
“They can try, but I’m pretty good at fighting. I am at the top level. I don’t think I would have any problems even in Russia late at night.
“Would you like to visit Russia?”
– Yes with pleasure. That’s very cool. I will definitely do it one day.
– Do you approximately represent the geography of our country? Can you show on the map where Siberia or Dagestan is, where are Peter Yan and Umar Nurmagomedov from?
– I don’t think so at all. Cannot be displayed on the map.
– Did you like Umar’s last fight?
I think he was boring. I changed it, to be honest. Did you like? I love watching Peter’s fights. I like the way he fights because he’s like a little killer. Do you really like Umar’s fights? Do you watch them? If you had the choice to watch my fight and Umar’s fight, which one would you choose?
— [самоцензура] In July 2021, you stated that Peter suffered from “shorty syndrome” and was therefore hostile. And a week later, your quote popped up that you like him because he’s a petty gangster. Can you explain how you really feel about him?
“I always say that I like Peter. You see, in all the interviews I say that I like him, that I respect him, that he is one of my favorite fighters, whose fights I watch. But in everything case, it’s not tall, it hasn’t changed. Tell me, is it tall or short?
“Let’s move on to other dimensions: you can place these three fighters in terms of strength: Petr Yan, Algemain Sterling and you.
– I’m a champ. Aljo is the second. Peter is the third.
