“I will say that Henry (Cejudo) completes the job. I think Henry will be at a higher pace than Aljo. I think Aljo cuts a lot of weight. I think Henry will take it to the decision or complete the job in the final rounds. I am talking now. They both said they want to face me later,” said O'Malley.

At 28 years old and considered one of the organization's top prospects, Sean O'Malley has a professional record of 16 wins and a single loss. Currently, 'Suga' has an unbeaten record of five fights, with four victories and an unsuccessful duel against the Brazilian Peter Munhoz.
