Sean O’Malley takes a shot at Daniel Cormier, claiming he wants to see O’Malley lose.
‘Sugar’ had another extremely impressive win over Raulian Paiva at UFC 269. He defeated Paiva via a first round TKO and finished it off with his patented ‘Sugar fadeaway’ jump shot after securing the win. The young phenoms stock continues to rise as he keeps running through the competition. Paiva was a step up in competition for the ‘Suga Show’, but he disposed of him easily while showing off his stand up skills both, offensively and defensively.

O’Malley seems to think that announcer and former two division champ Daniel Cormier wants him to lose when he steps in the octagon.
Sean O’Malley had this to say about ‘DC’ in a post fight interview
“I’ve always felt like ‘DC’ wants me to lose, I just, I don’t know I could be completely wrong. I just sat down with him the other day and it’s not like he doesn’t like me personally, I just feel like he kinda’ wants to see me lose. I don’t know what it is, if I remind him of a young Jon Jones, but uh for some reason I feel like he wants me to lose with certain things he says when he’s commentating.”
O’Malley went on to say that commentating the fights is a really hard job and he even acknowledged that he may be taking it to heart, or in his words “being a P*ssy”.
Cormier had come under fire earlier this week by Dominick Cruz as well. Cruz stated that ‘DC’ doesn’t do his homework and because of that, he listens to the broadcast on mute when he calls fights. Cormier ended up winning ‘Personality of the Year’ at the World MMA Awards this year, and dedicated his win to Cruz.
Do you think Sean O’Malley has a point about ‘DC’?
