And finally Sean O’Malley got his voice out after losing at UFC 252 to Marlon “Chito” Vera, but true to his style, the American did not show humility and in fact he detracted from the Ecuadorian’s triumph, noting that his rival “was not very good “, as could be heard on his own podcast called” The Timbo and Sugar Show. “
O’Malley, cataloged by many as the new UFC superstar, lost by TKO quickly to “Chito” Vera, as could be seen from an injury to his ankle that caused a fall that the Ecuadorian knew how to take advantage of to elbow him hard. American’s face, prompting referee Herb Dean to stop the match.
In the podcast, according to O’Malley, there was no serious damage to the ankle, noting that the problem was not due to a blow, but because of the bandage he made before the fight, giving Vera zero credit in the victory.
“I just gave it about seven times to bandage my ankle before going to warm up, I was in good shape. I felt 100 percent in my mind. Everything was perfect, but about five minutes before we start walking towards the Octagon I say to my team: ‘Do you think you could loosen my ankle brace? It’s very tight. ‘ So they loosened them and that’s why it was the mistake of leaving my ankle so free, “said O’Malley.
In the same program and referring to Marlos Vera, Sean O’Malley explained that “I went out to the Octagon, everything felt good. I was in front of him and I was thinking ‘this is so easy. he is slow. He can’t hit me, he can’t knock me down ‘, and it was really very slow ”.
Regarding the climax of the fight, O’Malley did not give Vera credit, noting that she had “total control” from the beginning.
“He won and that’s bullshit to me, because I lost to someone I consider not very good. I look at him and I’m like, ‘He’s not that good,’ but I lost to him, you know, that’s the most frustrating thing, losing to someone you know you’re better… Let’s look at his career in five years and see mine. I’m going to be a world champion, and he is going to be a day laborer. He is slow, but brave, ”argued Sean O’Malley.
In reference to his health, O’Malley said that he has not received medical clearance after UFC 252, but that he is visiting another doctor for an MRI this week and thus, he said, “Take this taste of the mouth”.
Days after the fight, however, it is obvious that the flavor is still strong.
