Javier Mendez doesn’t think fans are eager to watch Sean O'Malley fight.
Mendez recently acknowledged Movsar Evloev as the most deserving UFC featherweight title contender. However, the American Kickboxing Academy head coach believes that Evloev has been deprived of a title shot so far because of the lack of his drawing power. Mendez further noted that O’Malley received an immediate rematch against Merab Dvalishvili despite losing his bantamweight strap via a lackluster decision.
However, Mendez doesn’t think O’Malley is getting another title shot anytime soon. According to Mendez, “Suga” has lost some of his stardom after consecutive title losses against Dvalishvili.
