The UFC bantamweight champion found himself in hot water over the past few days after making controversial comments about his marriage. During an appearance on Bradley Martyn's Raw Talk, Sean O'Malley spoke about being in an open relationship with his wife, Danya Gonzalez.

Vitor Belfort took to Twitter to share the following message directed at Sean O'Malley:
"Reading this deeply saddened me. It's disheartening to see that many professional athletes end up with multiple ex-wives due to such behaviors. You serve as a negative role model for this generation. I genuinely hope that one day you reflect upon and change this terrible behavior. While you may be a great fighter, your actions as a father and husband are deplorable."
He further wrote:
"Realize that a man who lacks respect for his wife and the mother of his children can never be a good father. I would love to punch your ugly face in a boxing match. Your uncle @danawhite will never let be possible, But all the women would purchase the pay-per-view. To see the whooping that I will give you."
