Sean O’Malley thinks back to the last time
The champion revealed that his loss to Marlon Vera did not cross his mind despite it being his only defeat of his career.
O’Malley was completely stunned after a right foot kick from Vera, ultimately losing the fight.
However, this was almost four years ago, when Malley was a rising star who didn’t have as much experience as he does now.
Malley said, “Look where I am now.
“That fight plays out in a different way. I win that fight, maybe the next fight I fight someone I wasn’t ready for, and I lose. My career is completely different.”
