    They go right at it. Things settle down and O'Malley using reach to counter and keep Sterling at bay

    1-0 Sterling in a very uneventful round.

    Close rnd and Sterling might have taken it with the last 20 seconds pinning O'malley on cage and landing some punches.

    Let's gooo bro! **** yeah I'm a big Sean O'Malley fan and I'm happy for him. He showed tonite he was the real deal. There was no way O malley was going to let him recover.

    O'malley hurts Sterling. Throws hammer fist and punches at him as Sterling desperately tries to get guard. Ref jumps in and waves it. Early stoppage in my opinion

    O'Malley has freakish fast reflex. He gets guys with counters that comes out of nowhere.

    Stupid Sterling. Really thought he had a higher IQ than to give the striker literally his only chance at winning the fight, by not just standing up with him but trying to follow him around with reaching shots against the better striker who also has the reach advantage. begging to get countered.

    That was Sterlings fight to lose and he lost it because mma grapplers have the stupid need to stand up with strikers too often. So stupid.

    Freaking pissed.

    How can a fighter be so dumb. You're ticket to winning was grappling. Yet you spent 90% of your time trying to strike. Wtf

    DC is unbelievably hard to listen to. O malley best in the world? He lost to Yan and Chito, good win for Sean though

    It’s the Suga show babbby. I said this would be similar to McGregor/Aldo
