Rising star Sean O’Malley will challenge Aljamain Sterling for the UFC bantamweight title tonight, as the pair headline UFC 292.
O’Malley’s crisp and flashy striking has seen him win over a lot of fans, though his personality has proven divisive. In any case, the American has managed to set up a title shot without going through the wringer that many fighters do, in large part due to his profile. “Sugar Sean” did, however, take on ex-champion Petr Yan last year, edging past the Russian with a controversial decision win.
