7 Fights To Make After UFC 248

4. Sean O' Malley Vs. Raoni Barcelos

What an incredible performance Sean O'Malley had at UFC 248. The 25-year old battered Jose Alberto Quinonez with ease in their bout, showcasing the crafty and creative striking that made him a fan-favourite when he began with the promotion.

After obliterating El Teco with a head kick and punches, O'Malley walked away calmly, stating that the fight was too easy. We have to agree with him and after two years out of action due to a sanction by USADA, he'll want a much tougher challenge in his next match-up.

Since joining the UFC, Brazilian knockout artist, Raoni Barcelos, has proven himself to be quite an exciting fighter, finishing three out of his four fights inside the Octagon. Not only would he provide a fantastic test for O'Malley in all areas of the game, but this fight is pretty much guaranteed to be a fantastic bantamweight barnburner. If this is the next fight for both men, you can guarantee that we'll be watching.
