20 UFC Prospects Destined For Big Things In 2020
4. Sean O'Malley
Some fighters just have the "X-factor" from the very moment you see them. Whether it's their style, what they say or simply just how they fight, some guys and girls just have a je ne sais quoi that separates them from the rest of the pack. Ever since he crashed onto the scene on Dana White's Contender Series, Sean O'Malley has made everyone who has watched him feel like he's got something a little bit special.
Long and rangy, O'Malley is able to keep his opponents at bay using a creative arsenal of spinning kicks and wonderfully timed jabs However, his deceptive power means that when he truly swings at an opponent, chances are they're going to be knocked out.
His creativity doesn't end with what he does on the feet, as he's also a wicked grappler who is attacking at every opportunity. He's had some unfortunate problems with USADA which seem to be out of his control. However, once he's able to get that behind him, O'Malley has the potential to be a major star for the UFC.
