Sean O'Malley Reacts To Merab Dvalishvili Trying To Assault Fan At Craig Jones Invitational

Sean O’Malley (18-1-1NC) is scheduled to defend his Bantamweight Championship against the No. 1 contender Merab Dvalishvili (17-4) on September 14th at UFC 306.

Last week, Merab Dvalishvili attended the Craig Jones Invitational grappling tournament in Las Vegas to support his friends who competed at the event. A fan in the audience allegedly mocked Dvalishvili. The UFC fighter then jumped the barricade and grabbed the fan by his hair. Security then intervened and stopped Dvalishvili before things got worse.

On his YouTube channel, Sean O’Malley commented on the incident.

“One of the fans, whoever the fan is, I need to get your information because it was funny, said, ‘Sean is your daddy’ or something like that. That’s what I heard. I don’t know how true that is. Merab f–king lose it; he can’t handle it. True stoicism at its finest. That is stoicism.

So Merab freaks out [and] climbs the fence. [But] he doesn’t know what to do with the guy; he grabs his hair, which is assault, and he could be sued for assaulting a civilian. You’re not allowed to assault somebody. You can’t put your hands on somebody. Attention all ‘Suga’ Sean O’Malley fans, will you guys please, from the bottom of my heart, quit making fun of Merab. He can’t handle it. He’s very insecure. His nose is f–ked up. He doesn’t need you guys to telling him that I’m his dad. So, would you guys please quit making fun of Merab? His self-esteem is not very high right now. Lay off of that a little bit.”
