Almost four years ago, Sean O'Malley suffered the only loss of his career and it came against Marlon ''Chito'' Vera. Tonight, he'll try to prove that loss was a fluke.

O'Malley (17-1) will defend his UFC bantamweight championship for the first time when he meets Vera (23-8-1) in the main event of UFC 299 at Kaseya Center in Miami. O'Malley lost via TKO in 2020 after a nerve in his right foot went numb from a Vera leg kick. O'Malley has given Vera credit for landing the kick, but has always maintained that it wasn't a "true" loss because of the rarity of the nerve issue.
