Ian Machado Garry impressed by UFC 292 win over Neil Magny: ‘I thought he was a real fcking piece of sht’

Almost a week removed from his unanimous decision win over Neil Magny at UFC 292 in Boston, Massachusetts, undefeated Irish striker, Ian Machado Garry has claimed that he believed the welterweight staple was a “real f*cking piece of sh*t” – and is happy to have laid waste to him. Featuring on the main card of […]

Featuring on the main card of UFC 292 at the TD Garden, Portmarnock native, Machado Garry turned in his thirteenth straight Octagon victory, defeating the promotion’s most winningest welterweight, Magny – with a lop-sided unanimous judging win in ‘Bean Town’.

Ian Machado Garry reflects on one-sided win over Neil Magny

And reflecting on his one-sided trashing of the Illinois native, Machado Garry appeared more than happy with his handiwork on display in Boston.

“I didn’t want to hurt him (Neil Magny), I wanted him to feel what the other side of justice feels like,” Ian Machado Garry told BJPENN.com during a recent interview. “The words that that man uttered at the UFC media day were absolutely f*cking ridiculous and he should be ashamed of ever muttering the words of raising a hand to a kid or bragging about raising a hand to a kid. When I got to the desk and someone asked me about him, I could not as a man, as a person, not speak about what he said. …”

“I’d be f*cking ashamed of myself if I didn’t call out Neil Magny for what he said,” Ian Machado Garry explained. “I’d be ashamed that my son saw that and I didn’t call him out. I thought he was a real f*cking pice of sh*t that you went on stage with a mic in your hand that you got accustomed to whooping your son’s ass. Your son’s f*cking three. You should be ashamed of yourself. That is when it got personal.”

Off the back of his stunning win, Machado Garry, who had welcomed a clash with former two-time welterweight title challenger, Stephen Thompson, also divulged on a ‘dream” fight with the undefeated, Khamzat Chimaev – which he hoped to bring back to his native Dublin in the future.

Dvalishvili, who held the number one rank at 135lbs before UFC 292 last weekend, saw himself slip from the divisional summit after the event’s headliner – which saw his Serra-Longo MMA training partner, Aljamain Sterling drop his championship in a second round TKO loss against the above-mentioned O’Malley.

Sidelined since he headlined a ‘Fight Night’ billed event at The Theater at Virgin Hotels in Las Vegas, Nevada – Merab Dvalishvili improved his winning run to an impressive nine straight fights with a completely one-sided shutout unanimous decision win over former division champion, Petr Yan in a main event headliner.

In the time since, the Tbilisi native has been sidelined through injury, undergoing a surgical procedure to address a long-standing hand injury, however, is expected to challenge for undisputed spoils in teammate, Sterling’s absence.

My hand is still – the doctor just proved me I can start training, proved me that I can start slowly punching (and) grappling. But if the fight is next month, then I will be ready, because I don’t care, I’m just gonna ignore the pain. And I’m just gonna fight.”

New bantamweight champ Sean O’Malley is truly living his best life following epic UFC 292 knockout

Newly crowned UFC bantamweight world champion Sean O’Malley is truly living his best life following the biggest win of his mixed martial arts career.

Newly crowned UFC bantamweight world champion Sean O’Malley is truly living his best life following the biggest win of his mixed martial arts career.

On August 19, O’Malley stepped into the main event spotlight at UFC 292, determined to hand Aljamain Sterling his first loss in more than five years. In the end, it took ‘Sugar’ less than two rounds to do just that, blasting the ‘Funk Master’ with a vicious counter right hand that sent Sterling crashing to the canvas. Moments later, Sterling was face down on the mat and O’Malley’s hand was being raised.

In the days removed from his highlight-reel-worthy win, Sean O’Malley has been living it up. During an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, ‘Sugar’ conducted his entire interview while soaking in a bathtub surrounded by stacks of cash and UFC gold. Today, O’Malley was spotted on social posing with his new hardware. And nothing else.

With his decisive win over the man that many believed to be the greatest bantamweight in the history of the division, Sean O’Malley scored his first appearance on the UFC’s pound-for-pound list, occupying the No. 8 spot. His victory also caused a slight shift in the bantamweight rankings with Aljamain Sterling taking the No. 1 spot while Merab Dvalishvili slipped into the No. 2 slot.

As for what comes next, Sean O’Malley immediately called for a rematch with the only man that has defeated him inside the Octagon, Marlon ‘Chito’ Vera. The proposal would see the two men run it back this December at UFC 296, but recent rumors have suggested that Aljamain Sterling is already in line for an immediate rematch in early 2024.

A third option would see ‘Sugar’ take on Dvalishvili, though it appears that ‘The Machine’ is content to sit back and see how things play out with O’Malley’s first title defense. And then, of course, there’s always Henry Cejudo. The former two-division titleholder is usually lurking in the shadows, looking to snatch himself another shot at UFC gold despite coming up short in his return bout with the ‘Funk Master’ in May.

Off the back of his stunning second round loss to Sean O’Malley at UFC 292 over the course of last weekend, Aljamain Sterling has made his intentions clear for the future; a championship rematch with the outspoken Montana native.

Headlining at the TD Garden last Saturday in Boston, Massachusetts, Sterling suffered a stunning second round TKO loss against O’Malley – falling to a massive counter right hand, and follow-up ground strikes from the Dana White’s Contender Series.

The defeat saw Uniondale native, Sterling’s stunning nine fight winning run, which included a record-setting three successful title defenses against former champions, Petr Yan, T.J. Dillashaw, and earlier this year, Henry Cejudo.

Initially laying out plans for a title-fight at the featherweight limit against pound-for-pound number one and division champion, Alexander Volkanovski, Serra-Longo MMA staple, Sterling has now seen those plans entirely shut down by the Australian.

“Gotta feel for Aljo (Aljamain Sterling), man,” Alexander Volkanovski said. “I mean, what does he want to do? He’s definitely going to want that rematch [with Sean O’Malley]. That’s a big, big fight. [Him vs. me] that’s not happening. You never know, if he would have had a big win he could have took Ilia’s [Topuria] spot, but [he didn’t win].”

Aljamain Sterling plots rematch with Sean O’Malley next year

Eyeing up a continued run at bantamweight as a result, Sterling announced plans overnight, for a title re-run with O’Malley as soon as next year.

“Rematch 2024,” Aljamain Sterling posted on his official X account. “Game of inches. I’ll be back.”

Rematch 2024. Game of inches. I’ll be back.

As for O’Malley, the surging knockout artist had initially welcomed an immediate title fight rematch with former-foe, Marlon Vera – as soon as this December, in fact.

However, this week, the newly-crowned champion has now claimed that if Vera is insistent on plotting his future, he would skirt a rematch and instead chase a title defense with the aforenoted former duel-weight champion, Cejudo.

However, in a bid to avenge his sole career loss to Vera back in 2020, O’Malley has now claimed that he may end up fighting Cejudo instead – before listing a slew of contenders who will eventually land a title shot against him.

“You need to f*cking settle down or I’ll pick Henry Cejudo,” Sean O’Malley said on his podcast. “And don’t think that I don’t have the power to f*cking pick who I want to fight right now. So, you better f*cking go on Twitter, say, ‘Daddy, will you fight me?’ And I’ll f*cking think about it.”

“You need to settle down acting like you call the shots right now,” Sean O’Malley explained. “I’ll go box Gervonta (Davis), I’ll fight Henry, I’ll wait for Cory (Sandhagen). You need to chill out with your f*cking ugly ass outfits.”

And with a host of strawweight talent laying in the wings awaiting a title fight with Weili, the Chinese all-rounder has welcomed the prospect of sharing the Octagon with undefeated Ultimate Fighter winner, Suarez next.

“She’s good,” Zhang Weili told assembled media of Tatiana Suarez following UFC 292. “She’s undefeated. She’s a very good fighter. I think she can be a potentially challenger next.”

“I started my training camp this time since March, so I left my home for a couple months – such a long time,” Zhang Weili explained. “The only thing in my mind right now is just returning to home together with my family.”

Improving her undefeated record to 10-0 this year following her return from an over three year layoff, Californian grappling ace, Suarez returned with a guillotine choke win over Montana De La Rosa back in February, before submitting former champions and common-foe, Jessica Andrade with the same choke at UFC Nashville just earlier this month.
