O’Malley comments about McGregor
“One hundred percent (I saw McGregor as a role model),” O’Malley said on “between rounds.” “The way he was in fighting, the confidence to say what he thought would happen -” I’m going to spend this guy in round 2. “I have a lot out. I feel that I almost lost in a certain sense, where I wanted to be too much as a conor instead of being myself. “
“That was my second title defense, and I had something like:” I want this to be big, “said O’Malley.” I didn’t feel it was big. I didn’t feel that Merab was a big name. I had to force it. It was in the atmosphere. I felt that I had to make something and I didn’t like how I felt in a certain sense, because I didn’t hate Merab.
“I would like to switch it off. … I feel that I made it too personal, and I didn’t like that – but that kind of the only time I really forced something. The ‘chito’ beef I felt was really. I didn’t like that. That was a real one, but the Merab that I feel I forced a little.”
“I think there is an entertainment aspect that UFC people have to do a little to become a superstar,” said O’Malley. “You have to be yourself, and then you can add a bit. Yes, finding that balance. There is not someone to teach you. There is no book.”
