Sean O'Malley believes it can reach the level of Anderson Silva in the history of MMA. O 'Suga', as he is known, evaluated his career so far and says he doesn't care about the opinions of critics. He also expressed a desire to become one of the best fighters of all time.

“I am realizing my potential and I know that I can become a Anderson Silva, as well as being seen as one of the best fighters of all time. That's what still drives me. I just turned 28, I feel like I still have ten solid years left. The media, for example, doesn't affect me. They are full of shit and are stupid. Everything I've worked on myself in the last five or six years, if it affected me, I would be weak-minded. I've worked to deal with all these things and I'm not affected by it,” O'Malley said in an interview with the podcast 'impulsive'.
