Sean O'Malley predicts UFC 314 Co-Main event
Paddy Pimblett has predicted that he will win his biggest fight so far in two rounds.
Michael Chandler, on the other hand, just wants to test the 'Scousers Don't Get Out' theory of his opponent.
O'Malley does not know what way their fight will go, but he is sure of one thing on his way to UFC 314.
Whatever happens, he expects Chandler and Pimblett to be well matched to the Kaseya Center.
“That is a huge map. Paddy Pimblett vs Michael Chandler,” said O'Malley on his Timbosugarshow -Podcast.
“Paddy vs Michael Chandler is such an interesting fight. Michael Chandler is such a gangster for taking that fight.
“If he beats Paddy, that is still a big victory like. Maybe not in the eyes of some people, but Paddy is f – skilled.
“What he did with Bobby Green was super [impressive]. It is a big fight. Michael Chandler is a beast to take that fight, Paddy is a beast.
“I mean, Paddy, what he wants to do is climb the ranking. I think that fight is so logical.”
“I don't know who wins either. I feel it will be very competitive.”
What is the next step for Sean O'Malley?
O'Malley has been sidelined since losing his Bantamweight title to Merab Dvalishvili on UFC 306 last September.
In the meantime, the Georgian wrestler has defended the belt by opening Umar Nurmagomedov.
Last week Dana White announced that Dvalishvili vs O'Malley 2 will lead UFC 316 on 7 June.
O'Malley has promised to be '70 percent better' in the Rematch after giving up several of his vices.
Only time will learn whether he can put it all together, beat Dvalishvili and take back his title.
