This latest win solidifies O'Malley's remarkable UFC record, now with one no-contest and only one defeat, which he experienced against Vera in 2020 making his recent title victory of particular significance.
Despite his title defence, it hasn't all been perfect for O'Malley who recently revealed he has been dealing with multiple instances of fans coming to his family home in Arizona unwelcome.
Speaking on the 'TimboSugarShow' Suga opened up on what's been happening and even revealed it's getting to the point where he may be forced to use weapons against the intruders.

While the fighter appreciated the majority of these visits have been done by fans, he made it clear that these kind of things need to stop.
“It’s fans, they like me. But that doesn’t mean you can f*cking come to my house. Don’t come to my house.
