Bro got O'Malley to narrate the doc and thought we wouldn't notice

[@MixedMartialAcademic]

Mate don't spill my industry secrets

[@starseeddeluxe]

The UFC began to punish O'Malley as soon as word got out that he was bragging about getting easy matchups. He almost threw away his whole career by bragging about how easy his fights were early on. The UFC threw him in with the wolves by putting him against Peter Yan. The American English pronunciation is "Peter." Not "Peaturegh."

[@WearingGoldluck]

⁠​⁠@@starseeddeluxeIf Petr was American, then yeah, his name would be Peter, but he’s not, so his name isn’t pronounced that way. His name is Petr, pronounced “Pyo-terr” which is bit closer to how Academic says it than you’re trying too.

I never realized how many people strait up dislike suga Sean. I basically only watch actual fighting and skip most interview stuff. Seems to be everyone’s issue with him….

[@struBANG]

[@Paddyjay12]

But he's even good on his podcast.. He's a good influence for men's health and is a good dad.. Seems super chill to me. I think people just hate because he's flashy and a threat to their " favorite fighters".. Seems to have been doing well with his wealth and fame too.. We'll see when he gets to the level of Conor, but I'd bet he'll stay pretty chill.

[@DevDreCW]

He's aight. Great fighter with some big fights ahead of him, so cant wait personally

[@DrunkDrynasty]

I dunno I feel like he’s a giant bantamweight during a lull in the division. I like him, but I think he’s got good timing- 5 years ago he’d have to get through some tougher opponents. And when one day when he can’t make 135 anymore he’ll probably McGreggor himself.

[@BeauTylerMakesMusic]

Sounds like you’re a mature fan. Too many of these KZbin fans treat it like a reality show. Their constant gossiping makes them sound like the TMZ/Kardashian fan crowd. None of it matters and it’s all just for clicks.

[@TheElbowMerchant]

I'm not a huge O'Malley fan, at least in terms of his personality, but I am a massive fan of fluid and precise striking, and there's no denying he has that in spades. As long as he continues to put on exciting fights, he will have my respect and admiration, because that's all I can really ask of a combat sports athlete. Great video, Academic! Your prose is as beautiful as Suga's footwork. No Jones.

[@MixedMartialAcademic]

I appreciate the very leveled perspective, sometimes you just got to give it to the athlete! Same way I feel about merab, can’t stand him, respect him massively though!

[@yardboyyyy]

His style is 1 of 1. But he also does everything right behind the scenes. If you follow him you get that his secret is that his camps and prep beat everyone. Eats better trains better lives better.

[@TheSoonToBePurgedJackMeHoffIV]

​@@yardboyyyy He doesn't live morally

[@louiespringin]

A lot of that fluid and precise striking will evaporate when he finally has to fight someone his own size.Whether it's a guy at 135 his own size or he finally cant keep up his fulltime diet and has to go to his real weightclass of 145.

[@ghostamity5116]

I love that he avenged the loss to chito. Everyone was on his ass and then after it suddenly all the people saying he was bitching were like “I guess it was a fluke”. Duh, he said it was.

[@MixedMartialAcademic]

I always felt that he had a point man, it’s strange how people just call him delusional when his very first statement after is so based and level headed

[@thefranken-thing]

I think the way to beat Sean is to shell up and use fast footwork to close the distance and just dog him. He is a great striker and decent everywhere, but he is clearly fragile. He's had his leg injured in fights twice, and the one good shot Chito landed in the rematch had O'Malley doubled over in pain. It's easier said than done though when Sean is such a good mover and accurate counter puncher. His chin is decent too. If he wins a few more at 135, I think he should bulk up and see if the extra muscle makes him sturdier. His skill set would be incredible at 145 or 155 if he kept most of his speed and endurance. And, let's be real, no 30 year old man who's 5'10-5'11" should walk around at 150lbs if he wants to be effective in many real life scenarios. He says he's "mentally undefeated", but I'd be willing to bet he's lost a few to a pickle jar or a 50lb bag of dog food.😂

[@AveSicarius]

He's just doing what every UFC fighter is forced to do, promote himself because the promotion won't do it, he just happens to be better at it than most. He just seems like a very chill dude, obviously some of it is kayfabe, but personally I think that's just his sense of humour and he's being ironic most of the time. He's not a Conor McGregor where his real self is, uh, probably more like the insane figure presented instead of the normalish dude most people are outside of interviews haha.

100% loss meaning it’s a loss on the record and he didn’t get his hand raised, but everybody knows and knew even before he rematched chito, just from watching the fight, that chito wasn’t the better fighter, was getting worked and picked apart until the very soft leg kick got the nerve

[@cosmicbilly]

Fluke loss. Their 2nd fight proved that. Omally was still a sniper at the time. It's just unlucky. Sean got to prove himself in the rematch and absolutely dismantled Chito. I'd be saying the exact same thing if it was the other way around. I'd say the same thing if it happened to anyone. It's unfortunate. Kinda like getting a win from a DQ. It doesn't mean anything.

Was a fan until the Petr decision. Say what you want, but that fight was clearly won by Yan. Doesn't matter though because on Sean's record it's still a W. Him and his fans will keep lying to themselves, but that's a part of champ mentality so you can't get mad about it. At the end of the day he is a great fighter and strong mentally. That being said Petr Yan is still better all around, and would win in the rematch.

[@JACKYBWOII]

For many fighters who earn the belt its easy to see why people question their legitimacy, but i have NEVER understood how or why people question Suga. He never delivers a boring fight and he always proves that he has some of the heaviest and most precise hands in all of UFC... From the insane KO against Wineland to the spinechilling way he finished a grounded Almeida... The most insane experience is listening to a non-commentary suga fight, no DC or Anik to cover the blows, just bonebreaking knuckles doing the talking. On top of that you have a fighter who will prefer to do a walkoff KO and spare their opponents the pain and torment of his ground strikes, but will deliver the killing blows when necessary.

He was putting money into recovery and overall health waaay b4 most fighters , much like nba, soccer and baseball have beeen doing for years

I think his fight IQ showed that

i thought that sounded off hhahaa

Sean is a good dude and I’ve known he was for years. I wish Conor had his mentality sometimes to not be stupid. Would love to meet suga or tim someday good people for sure

[@derogagaming4459]

Forgot to mention all the fence grabs and glove grabs when he versed Petr Yan

[@urmom-_]

still coping?

[@chaboi7]

This is a glazing omalley videos that means those are a fluke, chitos wins was a fluke AND they're going to act like it's ok that omalley gives his wife away to other men.....basically this is a, most likely paid, advertisement for ufc's golden boy.

Always look forward to your videos.

I appreciate that!

[@richardjangles]

after he lost the belt and threw no punches LOL. Yea he sucks.

[@Atticus_Moore]

Dominic was the best. Now Sean is the best. I still miss waiting for all of the Dominic fights, and hearing his struggles after injuries and changing his life path really struck a chord with me after I became disabled

[@paul-g9m6q]

Beat Yan, funk master, chito, in dominant fashion, how is that fake?

[@MixedMartialAcademic]

It just what people, other than me. say about him

[@user-neo8888]

Yan won that fight

[@finnsonsboxing]

Bro you can say he got a lucky punch or you can call it fate but that knockout against sterling will go down I. History , O’Malley is a fucking monster man hits like a fucking truck

Can’t wait for you to cover me boss🤟 This video is awesome‼️

One day brother keep going my man

I UNDERSTAND WHAT SEAN WAS SAYING AND TOTALLY AGREE WITH HIM!!!

[@dennis_burgess]

I liked him until his delusional excuses.

[@MixedMartialAcademic]

They wearnt delusional, they were extremely level headed if you actually listen to him

[@benmcreynolds8581]

(People have discredited Sean's opponents but the reality is that it would be impressive if anyone performed in the ways that O'malley has performed in these fights. That's what I don't think a lot of people understand) A lot of people underestimate O'Malley but I feel like his striking skills, fight I.Q., movement, feints, stance switches, timing, strike diversity, is some of the best there is. He proved his striking output cardio endurance in that record setting output against Green haired Kris Mutino and that 5 round masterpiece of a title defense against Chito. He can strike around high guards. He understands how to put velocity/power on his shots. Even when moving backwards. He abstractly flows with how a fight unfolds. He's shown he can make really good reads in the moment. There are so many interesting high level fights that can be made going forward. All will be awesome to watch. There's insane talent in this division & near this division. At the end of the Day: What matters most is How can these people perform in the octagon? When the pressure is on can they perform in the cage? He isn't the next Conor. He is Suga Sean O'Malley and he has easily been the most entertaining new age fighter to watch as his career plays out

[@kenshin1644]

My main issue with O’Malley is he denies his losses. I don’t care if he beat chito in the rematch. He lost the first fight. And it wasn’t some accident. It was from a strike that chito initiated. Otherwise if a fighter elbows someone and they get a cut and the doctor or ref calls the fight the loser could say I didn’t lose cuz I wasn’t knocked out. It was a fluke injury. And then he loses his title after only 1 defense and then he comes out and says he’s still undefeated. Such bs. He’s a poor loser. I got no respect for a fighter like that

[@nickcavini]

Are you the same guy that made that video about the effects of CTE in combat sports? The video that plays a clip from 'The Caretaker- Everywhere at the end of Time'? I listened to that album over a span of three days immediately after first seeing the CTE video in August 2022. That album changed my life. I listen to the first 45 minutes of the album atleast once a week. I find it soothing. My Grandpa died of dementia in 2016 so I know all too well the horrors of that disease as well as ALS, (Amyotrophic Later Sclerosis) is how my Mom died in 2017. She was first diagnosed in 2014. ❤.

[@MixedMartialAcademic]

Yes mate, CTE video is still probably one of my favourite i have made for sure. I empathise massivly with you about your Grand Pa, Lost my Gran to the same thing and thats what guided making that CTE video. Glad you managed to find that Album to help you healing.

[@aaronm.3398]

Sugas fighting is the most entertaining out of his entire division. By far.

[@MixedMartialAcademic]

That’s a fact for sure

[@BelfackeR]

UFC learned. Not to let their fighter grow too fast. Like many before him. Darren till, Alexander Hernandez, gall, super sage, etc. Sean has been smart about it and thinking about money as main priority. If he wants lots of money, he has to be the best. To be the best he has to train, eat, sleep the best. It’s quite basic actually.

[@unhpsychology3909]

It’s funny whenever someone takes shots at Weasle for “counting punches” they always seem to leave out any sort of real argument for why what he does isn’t legit. Always some subtext suggesting that it’s silly but never explaining what’s wrong with it 🤔

[@MixedMartialAcademic]

I wasn’t insulting it in anyways lol, I know that might sound like it, what im saying is im not going to overthink or analyse it, it was just a close fight, that’s all I meant

[@HoboGardenerBen]

It doesn't reflect how the judging actually works at all. The judging isn't counting strikes and intensitt and adding it up mathematically. Effective grappling is much more important than he tries to make it seem and includes stuff he doesn't count. I'll go find the video I saw that details exactly how wrong the weasle is.

[@westinian3144]

cause its pretty silly to think the guy with the most strikes each round won the round, just because of that, plenty of times the guy with less strikes has won the round/fight, counting punches isn’t a judging point, damage, control time, aggression, etc are actual judging points

[@HoboGardenerBen]

@@westinian3144 Yup, go check out that video I shared in this thread by Fight Study. He goes into great detail about why the weasle is wrong. The scoring is very vibey, it's not simple math. The weasle read the rules and ignored a lot of it and then broadcast his misunderstandings to lots and lots of people who just mindlessly parrot him without ever looking deeper.

[@unhpsychology3909]

@@westinian3144 agreed, just looking at strike totals is not sufficient. That’s why he tries to make judgments on the impact of those strikes and weighs the higher impacts more. Aggression and control time literally don’t matter if somebody has more effective striking. He’s doing exactly what judges should be doing if they followed the rules, except he has the benefit of video replay so it’s more accurate. I think it would be fascinating for more people to use footage to score the fight (according to the actual judging criteria) and justify their decisions based on what they observe. I’ve yet to see anybody who thinks Weasle gets it wrong do that.

[@davidschaefer3201]

This channel is so great. Your courage is commendable.

[@Sidney-Holiday]

Do you not run into copyright issues with all the clips mate?

[@christopherhammond5142]

Yeah, right? It's clearly fair use but most companies don't care about the legality of it all.

[@westinian3144]

like the other guy said, they’re fair use clips, he’s saying it’s not his footage and where he got each clip from, and he’s not running ads on it, so the UFC can’t do anything

[@Sidney-Holiday]

​@@westinian3144 yeah thought it would be fair use but it seems other creators are so weary to use UFC content for copyright. Doesn't appear to be running ads but does have a sponsor read with sleep mask so it's still monetising. That's clearly a lot of work he's put into this video and seems the same with his other content.. so I'm just curious how it works financially. Unless it's gorilla marketing by UFC/O'Malley
