After losing his bantamweight title at UFC 306 on September 14, Sean O’Malley has now turned his attention to the world of boxing and has called out Devin Haney for an MMA fight. Sean O’Malley was budding into one of the UFC’s biggest stars whilst he was the king of the bantamweight division, and that even led him to flirt with the idea of a crossover boxing fight down the line. Despite that, ‘Suga’ lost his 135lb title to Merab Dvalishvili at UFC 306, putting a big dent in his stardom and likely hindering any chance he had of a cross-promotion boxing fight.
Sean O’Malley calls out Devin Haney and offers him $1m to fight in MMA After losing his title in disappointing fashion, the 29-year-old went on to claim that he in fact won the fight after rewatching it, claiming he won rounds one, three, and five. As well as riling up the MMA fanbase with his ridiculous claim, the former champion also called out former boxing world champion, Devin Haney , after Haney tweeted on X saying: “O’Malley b*tchass lost.” “Boxers are f*cking p*ssies dude, Devin Haney’s a b*tch, he’s such a b*tch.
If Devin Haney really wants to talk sh*t, he really wants to fight, I’ll put $1m, me vs him, no time limit and we can fight,” O’Malley claimed on the recent episode of the Timbo and Suga Show. O’Malley posed that the two fight in an MMA rules fight, however, went on to state that he would fight Haney in a boxing match but wouldn’t put up $1m of his own money in that situ.
