Taking center stage at tonight’s massive UFC 2024 Seasonal press conference in Las Vegas, undisputed middleweight champion, Sean Strickland ripped into his bantamweight champion counterpart, Sean O’Malley – branding the Montana native a “clown” while mocking his persona.

As for O’Malley, the Dana White’s Contender Series alum is slated to headline UFC 299 in April in the promotion’s return to Miami, taking on soon-to-be two-time foe, Marlon Vera in the pair’s bantamweight championship rematch in Florida.
