Im going to rip off your tattoos! Ryan Garcia and Sean OMalley get HEATED in face-time c

Ryan Garcia has plans to seriously hurt Sean O’Malley in a potential clash. O’Malley and Garcia have repeatedly called each other out, and it seems like things have finally gained momentum. Recently, O’Malley was playing Call of Duty and simultaneously face-timing Garcia, who was in the Jake Paul podcast. 

During the call, both fighters got into a heated argument and claimed to destroy each other in a fight. Ryan Garcia revealed that he wanted an MMA fight with O’Malley and boldly proclaimed that he wanted to beat the bantamweight champion at his own game.

Let's be real though, I will whoop your a** in MMA and boxing. F*** the nice talk bro, I'm gonna beat your ass. I'm gonna murder you and then I'm gonna rip off your tattoos off your face. I could kill you and rip off your beard and feed it into your mouth.

Garcia and Sean O’Malley also talked about doing both MMA and boxing at 145 lbs. ‘Suga’ seemed down for business and agreed to the challenge. However, between all the trash-talking, the mutual respect between both the fighters was quite clearly visible. 

O’Malley recently extended his superstar status by successfully defending his bantamweight title against Marlon Vera at UFC 299. Similarly, Garcia shocked the world by beating Devin Haney on his last outing. Given the hype and popularity of both fighters, a cross-promotion fight might not be a bad move at all. However, not everyone is a huge fan of the idea. 

Kamaru Usman calls out Sean O’Malley for looking past his division and calling out Ryan Garcia

Kamaru Usman has advised against Sean O’Malley thinking about fighting Ryan Garcia and ignoring other UFC fighters. The bantamweight division is one of the deepest and most competitive in the current UFC roster setup. As such, Usman felt O’Malley should not pursue boxing bouts at present. 

During a podcast with Henry Cejudo, Usman revealed that O’Malley should get a few more successful title defenses before calling out boxers. Usman claimed that would cement O’Malley’s legacy even more.

Why are we even entertaining this right now? [Sean] you have one of the deepest divisions of contenders waiting for you. Why are we entertaining you going here and there...How about we beat up a couple of guys in my division first, and cement myself as a great in my division... before I'm even entertaining these gimmick fights

O’Malley won his belt by beating Aljamain Sterling via TKO at UFC 292. Since then, the fighter has had only one title defense. Currently, he is expected to fight Merab Dvalishvili next. After that, a few more wins might give O’Malley the leverage to propose an idea to fight someone like Garcia.
