UFC legend Chael Sonnen believes that Sean O'Malley's ability to call out opponents is what differentiates him from fellow fan-favourite Paddy Pimblett.
O'Malley and Pimblett are two of the most intriguing characters in MMA and have attracted millions of fans to their fights with explosive finishes and memorable interviews. But Sonnen, who is one of the greatest talkers in the sport's history, feels that the Brit seems not to be comfortable calling out specific names.
They are both big with fans, although O'Malley at just a year older is already one of the top-ranked bantamweights in the world after beating former world champion Petr Yan and shooting up the top 10. Pimblett, on the other hand, is just four fights into his promotional career and is taking a similarly slow path to the one O'Malley did with his first few bouts.
