O'Malley on When to Expect a Fight Against Garcia

UFC champion Sean O'Malley shared his thoughts on when he might step into the ring against American Ryan Garcia. According to Sean, the UFC has given him the green light to participate in a boxing match against Garcia, but he believes the timing should be later and explained why.

"They said I could have a boxing match if it makes us enough money. So, the permission is there; we just need to find an opportunity to make enough money.

But Ryan is too much of a freak right now, and we need two top fighters to have a fight on the level of Floyd vs. Conor. I'm not there yet; I need to get bigger.

Two more f****ing performances, and then we can talk about doing whatever we want," said O'Malley.

Ryan defeated Devin Haney in his last fight. Before the fight, Garcia had reached out to Sean, stating he was ready for a match even in MMA.
