Yeah Sean definitely shouldn't be matched with Smolka but the UFC wants to take their precious time with him because he sales, IMO he should've been matched with Kyler Phillips or Nathaniel Wood to say the least.

I think O'Malley wins but I doubt he gets a KO, Smolka has never been KO'd and O'Malley almost went to a decision with ****** Almeida. O'Malley's record is actually very lackluster, biggest wins are over Wineland in 2019? Almeida in 2021? My prediction is that O'Malley never cracks the top 5 unless they keep him away from grapplers.

@ZoomerBet Smolka himself is a decent grappler. He’s got a Brown Belt in Judo.

Merab just said he would take it and still fight Marlon in September as well 

Tim Elliot called for it as well (random) 

Ray Borg also asking for it to get back in the UFC.

Fine by me, I've never liked Smolka so I'd rather just watch O'Malley bazooka whoever they bring in on short notice. But if it's Merab, O'Malley is ******

Ricky Simon is underrated IMO. Sean would be wise to steer clear.

Simon and Merab would be tough IMO. I think he would put a beating on Elliot or Borg at 135 though.

Rahkmonov at Bantamweight is a terrifying image. Imagine this 6’1 giant fighting 5’6 midgets

I just find it funny that the UFC is clearly trying to give O'Malley the Cody treatment and stick him on Conor's cards but it's just not been working lol

ModestMan, you want Rahkmonov to fight Sean? Why stop there? Just throw Sean in the cage with Ngannou.
