O'Malley needs stronger legs/core. his balance is dog ****, he gives up takedowns way too easy and it's from weak legs/feet imo

Win or lose... Sean O'Malley is the real deal.  I am sure he just garnered respect from the entire MMA community after this one.

You cannot score this fight damage first and say Yan won 30-27. Do you see his face or are you Stevie Wonder?

Sean already had my respect inside the ring, less so outside. He's like Jon Jones in that respect.
