crazy how Chito’s first language is not English and he has way more charisma then O’Malley

[@user-oo1rz6es3z]

O‘Malley wearing his pink pointy glasses to the presser and talking about how other men have fun with his wife.. the bar is pretty low

[@xancypillosi9497]

O’Malley is a dweeb. Def got picked on in school - dudes a try hard

[@Brickwilliams]

It really isn’t crazy, any man who can speak words has more charisma than O’Malley

[@bloodontoast8522]

Literally. Zhang Weili, who only speaks a few words of English, has more charisma than Sean.

[@justinjasper03]

It's a gift how awkward he is , it almost sounds purposeful

Chito vs sean is like “battle between two different kinds of stoner”

chito doesnt even deserve this title shot, much less the belt lol

It’d be a shame, he loses to all top competition and is not champion material.

In light of what happened in Ecuador last week, I kinda low key want to see Chito take the win.

[@deucey89]

the difference with Helen is that she has great rapport with all the fighters, and is actually funny, but ask the questions we want answered - the best blend between the 2 - Nina goes for the comedy too much, ESPN isn't funny enough, nor do we get to know the fighters, the perfect blend is here in my opinion.

[@youngman7600]

I would never do an interview with Nina

now i cant wait to hear the song he chooses

Chito will make a good champ. Hes authentic, self made and a good family man. Compare that to the green headed alternative and Ill take him any day of the week! Good for you Chito. You earned it brother.

[@hcm1457]

I like Chito. Good dude it seems,hell of a fighter. Personality wise, probably rock with him before Omalley for sure it seems. That said, the last fight was what it was and i just dont see Chito not getting absolutely pieced up for 5 rounds (or less) by Sean, especially with his tendency for slow starts. We won't see another anomalous dead nerve/drop foot scenario I can't imagine. Whole card is fire though and 300 still has a LOONG way to go to outshine it,even after the bmf announcement.
