LAS VEGAS – “The Suga Show” had a triumphant reboot Saturday at UFC 248 when Sean O’Malley made quick work of Jose Quinonez in his first fight in two years.
O’Malley (11-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC), who has been out of action since March 2018 due to injuries and a U.S. Anti-Doping Agency situation that ultimately resulted in his innocence, put on a striking clinic against a helpless Quinonez (8-3 MMA, 5-2 UFC) to finish the fight in just 2:02.
The bantamweight bout closed out the UFC 248 preliminary card at T-Mobile Arena. It aired on ESPN following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass/ESPN+ and ahead of the main card on pay-per-view.
O’Malley came out of the gate throwing a diverse striking attack in Quinonez’s direction. Eventually a big shot clipped Quinonez that sent him down to the canvas, and O’Malley swarmed until referee Dan Miragliotta stepped in to wave it off.
“It’s hard to put into words,” an emotional O’Malley said in his post-fight interview with Joe Rogan. “I can’t even put it into words. Definitely ‘The Suga Show 2.0.’ I definitely have more tools and more moves for a sweet finish.”
