Sean O'Malley recently shared his reaction to Conor McGregor's latest sparring footage. The reigning bantamweight champion wasn't impressed with what he saw and ensured he conveyed his dismay via a simple three-word message.
While O'Malley has called himself a McGregor fan in the past, the Montana native seemingly hasn't been on good terms with the Irishman. The two have been trading barbs on social media over the past few months after McGregor attacked and called out O'Malley over his previous positive Ostarine tests.
In line with their current equation, O'Malley also recently claimed that the Irishman wasn't as skilled as people hyped him up to be and slammed him for his alleged drug use. He also claimed he could beat the former two-division UFC champion in a fight.

"Slow and sloppy."
Sean O'Malley weighs in on potential Conor McGregor fight
Sean O'Malley recently opened up about potentially fighting Conor McGregor someday and claimed he was confident he could beat the Irishman. As mentioned, O'Malley and McGregor haven't been on good terms since 'The Notorious' sounded off on the Montana native for failing Ostarine tests in the past.
During an episode of his YouTube podcast (via @ChampRDS on X), 'Suga' broke down a potential bout against McGregor and expressed his confidence about getting his hand raised. He stated:
"There's weight classes for a reason. I'm not gonna chirp those guys [at lightweight]. I will chirp Conor [McGregor] because I do believe I can beat Conor in a fight. I'm not just saying that, I think stylistically I could beat Conor in a fight...I wouldn't call out somebody if I didn't think I could beat them in a fight...Conor's 5'7"...He's thick but he's short...Talk sh*t, let's do it."
