“He’s Got the Speed and Reflexes Equal to (Floyd) Mayweather”: UFC Champ Sean O’Malley Being Adamant on Gervonta Davis Fight Draws Wild Response from Fans

Sean O’Malley is considering fighting Gervonta Davis as part of his future in combat sports. Malley recently defeated a dominant champion to win the UFC bantamweight title. His knockout win earned him the title of ‘the people’s champ.’ However, O’Malley believes Davis isn’t yet prominent enough for a crossover event.

Critics argue that O’Malley follows Conor McGregor’s path, like when McGregor fought with Floyd?Mayweather. However, this will happen only if O’Malley scores another knockout against Chito Vera. Despite making blatant claims about ‘Tank,’ it looks like the MMA star is still chasing him. In a recent post making circles on social media, fans have given mixed yet wild reactions to the idea of this bout.

Sean O’Malley’s callout for Gervonta Davis drives fans into a frenzy

Sean O’Malley has called out ‘Tank’ by undermining his prowess. He even said, “You are 5 foot 3 inches, settle down,” to Davis. In an interview with Michael Bisping, he cleared his stance. He said, “Ideally, I go out there and I have to knock out Chito, I can’t go win a decision, I can’t submit him, I gotta go out there and knockout Chito and then I’m gonna call out Gervonta. I know that fight sounds silly to a lot of people…But then again, Gervonta’s still not quite there.” This caused fans to have mixed opinions on the potential match-up between Sean O’Malley and Gervonta Davis. They immediately took to social media to voice their thoughts about the matchup.

One fan believes that O’Malley would win under MMA rules but sees it as a 50/50 chance. As he says, “In MMA rules 100% Sean won, in boxing, 50/50, sean is good in timing, with one punch KO”

However, another fan doubts O’Malley would ever step into the boxing ring with Davis. The fan writes, “O?Malley will never step into the boxing ring with Tank lol he?ll regret it instantly.”

Adding to the skepticism, a third fan finds it cringeworthy that MMA champions often call out boxers right after winning a title. The fan opines, “It?s cringe that the first thing MMA Champs do after winning a title. Is call out a champion boxer, lol everyone wanna make that Conner money.”

On the other hand, one user praised Davis as the best raw talent they’ve ever seen, claiming he would destroy O’Malley. The user pens, “Tank would destroy him whether it was in the ring or in the octagon tank is the best raw talent. I’ve ever seen he’s got the speed and reflexes equal to Mayweather but with the killer instinct and heavy hands of canelo tank is unbeatable at this point in his career.”

One follower proposed making it a kickboxing match. The follower suggested, “Just make it a kick boxing match these boxers have no real skills outside of that and would get smoked in a street fight vs a ufc fighter keep hiding cause your talents ain?t that good and If they are run it in a MMA match.”
