Petr Yan will face Sean O'Malley at UFC 280 on Saturday
Former UFC bantamweight champion Petr Yan got physical in Abu Dhabi on Thursday when shoving his UFC 280 rival Sean O’Malley during a staredown.
The fighters are set to face off on Saturday night with the winner standing a good chance of challenging the winner of a championship match between the division’s current ruler Aljamain Sterling and TJ Dillashaw.
A heated press conference brought a war of words with O’Malley vowing to “smash” Yan and saying that the Russian had lied about his height.
Yan responded to this by saying “it’s not about the height.”
“Just look at him, he’s like a woman on the side of the road,” he added, drawing laughter from O’Malley.
“That was good, that was good,” O’Malley admitted.
