Dana White thinks Sean O’Malley ’s fight with Petr Yan at UFC 280 is comparable to Conor McGregor vs. Jose Aldo. Although McGregor had a lot of notoriety prior to his famous UFC 194 fight with Aldo in December 2014, his popularity and significance hit overdrive when he knocked out the longtime champion in just 13 seconds . O’Malley (15-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC), who has repeatedly acknowledged McGregor as one of the people he wants to mimic his career after , will have the chance to break through in his own way when he meets Yan (16-3 MMA, 8-2 UFC) in Saturday’s featured bout, which takes place at Etihad Arena on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi.
