Sean O'Malley mocks 'poor guy' Dominick Cruz for fighting in UFC 269 prelims
Sean O'Malley has admitted that he isn't sure if he can fight Dominick Cruz anymore. The rising bantamweight star has been going back-and-forth with Cruz over the last few months.
In a recently posted video on his YouTube channel, Sean O'Malley claimed that Cruz isn't on his radar anymore. 'Suga' said that the former UFC bantamweight champion might have to be the one to ask O'Malley for a fight moving forward.
Sean O'Malley questioned whether Cruz was the main event of the UFC 269 prelims or not and labeled the former bantamweight kingpin a "poor guy."
"I don't even know if I can fight Dominick Cruz anymore. After this fight dude, he's not really on my radar, he's kind of down like, like he might have to ask me for a fight. He lost that, which is not a good move for him. Me calling out Dominic Cruz after I get a win whether he wins or loses is just like, people kind of they're gonna still want to see it but what is it? I don't know, is he even main eventing the prelims anymore? Poor guy!"
