‘I’d like to rough him up’ - Rani Yahya calls out Sean O’Malley after UFC Vegas 43 win

Bantamweight veteran Rani Yahya has just defeated a game Kyung Ho Kang at UFC Vegas 43, but the Brazilian jiu-jitsu blackbelt already has his sights set on the next challenge. In fact, the 37-year-old even has some names in mind, including one that many other men would like to take on: hot prospect Sean O’Malley.

In an interview with Combate, Yahya did name other potential opponents for his next outings, such as Adrian Yanez or Marlon Vera. However, Rani has a preference for O’Malley, who he wants to give a hard time in the Octagon, should the UFC allow the pairing to become true.
