The “Suga Show” appears to be must-see viewing.
Bantamweight Sean O’Malley, considered by many to be one of MMA’s top prospects and who was No. 2 in ESPN’s rankings of the top 25 fighters under 25 years old in 2019, added to his highlight reel with a first-round, one-punch knockout of veteran Eddie Wineland at UFC 250 on Saturday night at the UFC Apex facility in Las Vegas.
The stiff right-hand shot from O’Malley certainly wowed longtime color analyst Joe Rogan, who on the ESPN+ pay-per-view said, “That may have been the greatest walkaway KO we’ve ever seen.”
O’Malley’s fellow MMA fighters were impressed, too. Many took to Twitter to heap praise on the 25-year-old, who improved his record to 12-0.
