Sean O'Malley's Next UFC Fight: Seeking Excitement and a "Scary" Opponent

Sean O'Malley, the UFC bantamweight champion, is open to facing either Merab Dvalishvili or Ilia Topuria after his upcoming rematch with Marlon Vera at UFC 299. O'Malley expressed interest in a champion vs. champion match against Topuria, who recently won the UFC featherweight strap, but Dvalishvili has also called him out for a shot at the 135-pound belt. O'Malley believes Topuria is a scarier opponent but is open to facing Dvalishvili if that's what the fans want. However, he remains focused on his upcoming fight and knows that his performance against Vera will determine his future opponents.
