#Seanomalley plans on convincing UFC president Dana White that he’s ready for Petr Yan by scoring a knockout win. White said this week that he was initially skeptical when matchmaker Sean Shelby proposed the Yan (16-3 MMA, 8-2 UFC) vs. O’Malley (15-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC) matchup for UFC 280 and needed to be swayed. “Sean Shelby wanted that fight,” White said. “I said, ‘Are you out of your mind? You don’t make that fight now.’ … He ended up selling me on it.” Yan, who is No. 2 in the latest Luxurytainment bantamweight rankings, is a significant step up in competition for O’Malley, but “The Suga Show” is confident that he can take out the former champion Oct. 22 and didn’t seem bothered by White’s sentiment. “I don’t know,” O’Malley said to Luxurytainment “I’m not really looking at it either way. Once I faceplant Petr into the canvas, Dana will be like, ‘OK, that was a good fight.’ Regardless, me vs. Petr is an epic fight, a sweet, sweet kickboxing fight if I had to guess – two very high-level strikers, two very high-level MMA fighters, and it’s gonna be a very interesting fight. I believe I have what it takes to put Petr’s lights out.” O’Malley, 27, is coming off a no contest against Pedro Munhoz at UFC 276 where an accidental eye poke in Round 2 rendered Munhoz unable to continue. O’Malley said he doesn’t feel any added motivation to prove White wrong. “No, not at all,” O’Malley said. “I think Dana really likes me. I love Dana. So I think with him saying that, it was no disrespect or anything. It’s just his opinion, and anybody could have their own opinion. I don’t really care. I think that fight gets Dana excited. Dana’s been doing this for a long time. He could be getting burnt out of it, (watching) fights every weekend. What fight is gonna make Dana go, ‘I need to watch that fight, I have to watch that, I have to know what happened? There are very few fights (coming up).” O’Malley vs. Yan is one of them. #petryan vs. Sean O’Malley UFC 280 #yanomalley
