UFC is filled with big-name fighters. Among these, Sean O’Malley’s name hovers in the top list. Recently, the UFC bantamweight champion had some choice words for another top star. His latest target was none other than Conor McGregor.
O’Malley unleashed a brutal verbal assault on the Irish superstar. The young champion didn’t pull any punches in his assessment of McGregor’s current state. “Conor isn’t in anyone GOAT talk. Entertainment yes but skills, no. Has a really good left hand. Shit Cardio. Weak Jits. Decently athletic. Mentally weak. Drug addict, needs rehab. 1-4 last 5 fights. Still fan tho. Hope toe heals up,” O’Malley stated in a post on X.
O’Malley, known for his colorful hair and even more colorful personality, didn’t hold back. His comments were particularly surprising given his past admiration for McGregor. He’s often cited the Irishman as a source of inspiration for his own career.
But it seems the shine has worn off for O’Malley. This puts perspective in the saying ‘never meet your heroes.’ This isn’t the first time O’Malley and McGregor have butted heads. The two had a brief spat earlier this year. That exchange seemed to blow over quickly. But O’Malley’s latest comments suggest there might be more to this rivalry.

O’Malley had previously tested positive for the banned substance Ostarine. He claimed that a recent study had shown that Ostarine could be transferred through sweat. This raised some eyebrows, especially McGregor’s. His now-deleted response was a simple laugh that spoke volumes.
O” Malley fired back with a series of posts about McGregor’s recent performance and personal life. The timing of this spat is interesting, given both fighters’ current situations. O’Malley is riding high as the bantamweight champion while McGregor is on the sidelines.
The Irishman’s recent absence from the octagon has left fans hungry for his return. This exchange reminded fight fans that the ‘Notorious’ can still stir up drama outside the cage.
