Sean O’Malley on Champ-Champ Status

Speaking to Canal Encarada on YouTube, the 135-pound fighter revealed that he plans on winning the title in the division and then moving up to try and secure Champ-Champ status by winning the Featherweight gold.

He said: “Ideally, if I could pick how it plays out, you know, I’m eventually gonna go up to 45. I think before I do that I have to become the champ bantamweight champion, has to be done. 

“I think I will once I’m bantamweight champion I’ll deserve and earn a title shot at 45. I believe I can become double champ.

“Then I do think in the future, you know, Gervonta Davis sounds like a big fight for me. I would love to go over to the boxing world. I know people love it, they hate it. 

“They don’t want to talk about it. ‘MMA never beats boxers,’ but I’m in the entertainment business and I believe in my skills and I truly think that in four or five years, if I’m the double champ, or if I’ve been the (bantamweight champion), I’ve been the featherweight champion, and Gervonta Davis is still a superstar, there’s no reason I can’t go over there and perform for the fans in boxing and put his lights out, too, and become the biggest combat sports athlete in the world.”

We’ve seen a few MMA stars make their way over to the sweet science with mixed results, including Anderson Silva, Tyron Woodley and Conor McGregor. Whether O’Malley can be a megastar along those lines remains to be seen, but the charismatic fighter certainly stands a chance.
