Watch: Sean O'Malley meets with Andrew Tate ahead of UFC 280; sits at the wheel of latter's Bugatti
Sean O'Malley recently met up with controversial British-American internet personality and former kickboxer Andrew Tate ahead of his UFC 280 clash against Petr Yan in Abu Dhabi. Tate even gave 'Sugar' the opportunity to sit at the wheel of his Bugatti.
The meetup also included O'Malley's podcast co-host, Tim Welch, and former fighter-turned-celebrity entrepreneur Tam Khan. The picture of 'Sugar' sitting in Tate's Bugatti was posted to Khan's Instagram Stories.

Andrew Tate has garnered a lot of attention in recent times due to his controversial takes on a variety of subjects, mostly women. Tate was even banned from Facebook and Instagram for his misogynistic comments. Unlike most of us, however, O'Malley doesn't have a problem with many of Tate's comments.
'Sugar' even admittedly liked the idea proposed by Tate of women having to write their "body counts" on their foreheads. Most recently, the UFC bantamweight fighter uploaded a training clip with a motivational speech from the controversial kickboxer playing in the background.
Sean O'Malley has been eyeing a link up with Andrew Tate for a while now
Sean O'Malley hasn't shied away from voicing his support for the controversial Andrew Tate. 'Sugar' claims to have once been contacted on his DMs by the former Big Brother contestant who weirdly wrote, "Let's do it." While he had no clue what Tate was hinting at, O'Malley agreed to do it.
More recently, O'Malley admitted that he was trying to get Tate on his TimboSugarShow podcast. He was aware that the disputed figure was planning to be in attendance at UFC 280 but he wasn't sure if tickets could be procured. The 27-year-old told Tim Welch during a recent episode of his podcast:
"I don't know, we're trying [to get Tate on the podcast]. He's gonna be there supposedly [at UFC 280]. Well I don't know if he's going to be able to get a ticket. So if he doesn't get a ticket, he probably won't come."
