Sean O’Malley projects the duration of his break
“I probably won’t fight for probably nine months, 10 months, maybe a year, It’s going to be a while.
People are going to have to watch the UFC without The Suga Show for a little bit, but then maybe they’ll realize, ‘*, we had it, it was fun.’ ... No one’s next. I’ve got to get healthy and that’s it.
I’m going to actually heal up from injuries, and take my time to come back”. .
