Payton Talbott calls out Sean OMalley, OMalley responds

Sean O’Malley refutes Payton Talbot‘s assertion that there were talks for the two to meet on the UFC Freedom 250 fight card this past June.

Leading up to his UFC 332 bout against Deiveson Figueiredo, Talbot claimed the former champion turned down the matchup. Talbot defeated Figueiredo via first-round TKO on Saturday in the fight card’s co-main event and used his mic time to call out “Suga.”

“I just mopped the floor with two champions back-to-back and I want another one,” Talbot said in his post-fight interview. “Sean O’Malley, you can’t run forever. Give the people what they want.”

O’Malley responded to Talbot’s claims, calling them ‘bullish*t.”

“I’m here to f**king address these rumors that I got offered Payton Talbott for the White House,” O’Malley said. “That is just absolutely bullsh*t.”

O’Malley also addressed Talbot in an Instagram story. “4 out of the last 7 fights have been against three of the greatest bantamweights of all time,” O’Malley said. “Ain’t ducking no one.”

O’Malley is coming off a second-round TKO win over Aiemann Zahabi at the UFC White House event. He’s ranked third in the division while Talbot will likely jump into the Top 10 with his win over Figueiredo.
