Sean “Sugar” O’Malley (11-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC)

Sean O’Malley has 6 KO/TKO finishes and two submission finishes in his professional career. O’Malley has just three wins by decision. O’Malley is arguably the biggest name to come out of Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series and is a very unorthodox and confident fighter. O’Malley is one of the most well-rounded fighters, especially at the age of 25 years old. At 5’11” and a 72″ weight within the UFC’s bantamweight weight class makes Sean a real anomaly in terms of physical attributes. On top of these gifts, O’Malley has some precise and odd striking that often catches his opponents off guard.

One of O’Malley’s most memorable wins was actually a unanimous decision win over Andre Soukhamthath. The bout saw ‘The Sugar Show’ dominate before breaking his foot and surviving with grappling till the final bell. A true show of grit that introduced many fans to O’Malley. Sean will be back for a second time in 2020, after dismantling Jose Alberto Quinones in just a round back in March.
