Panic wrestle? He's been wrestling the whole fight!

Panic wrestle?!

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.

This whole panic wrestle thing does my head in, it’s MMA ffs.

 

[AmericanParadox]

Sean is a tough dude

 

[GOAT]

Great fight from O'Malley, but not exactly Conor McGregor status...

 

[websurfer]

Petr Yan had that championship quality. Shame it's not a five rounder. Yan toughed it out with the takedowns, but O malley landed the heavier shots.

 

[Sivo The Ram]

fun fight. i think petr clearly won, but sean proved his toughness. he ate some nasty counter shots

 

[Humongo]

Yan 3-0 but O'malley did better than I expected.

 

[Pakman]

I have Petr winning this fight, I even think he won all 3 rounds even though he got cut with that knee and rocked early (he landed a ton of counters and the TDs/control time have to count for something)

but this was a really close fight, I could somehow see it if judges gave it to Sean although I don't think he personally deserves a W.

But, he is a very legit fighter and not the hype train that people have thought of him to be. If he can compete with Petr like this, he is for sure a top level fighter.

 

[traditionally_irreverent]

Amazing Fight!

 

[par6597]

i think yan edged him but only barely

 

[Pierced7681]

Sean cannot check leg kicks. Yan clearly won but Sean didn't get completely outclassed. The size is definitely a factor. Duh. I know.

I’d like to see OMalley Sandhagen

 

[Armyhawk]

Really impressed by sean

 

[Iron Nick]

What a fight.

We need Sandhagen vs O Malley down the line

We'll get that relatively soon, i'm sure.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

This is one of those occasions where we need 2 more rounds

 

[Natural Order]

29-28 Yan from me

 

[DrunkMonkMeth]

Takedown might win it but i felt omailly won the stand up clearly

 

[kevo1295]

O'Malley won the fight. Don't care about the scorecards

 

[Jballer]

O’malley seems to lack a killer instinct. Even in past fights when he has a guy hurt, instead of putting on the pressure he takes a step back.

 

[MuffinsAppletree]

yans a bitch

Why? Great fight by both. I enjoyed it

 

[Bojka]

That TD won Yan the fight. No matter what that judges decide, Sean proved he belongs.

Anyone giving Yan the 3rd due to panic wrestling is an idiot tbh. But I could see the judges doing it.

 

[Pharenheit]

Yan about to get screwed isnt he

 

[BEATDOWNS]

Idk if I’d call it panic wrestling but Sean definitely had him hurt a few times when yan went for the TD

and that's what make Yan a pro he knows when to bail if he has to..
