Sean O'Malley weighs in on the recent controversies surrounding the Tate brothers

Sean O'Malley had spent some time with Andrew Tate in Abu Dhabi ahead of UFC 280 this past October. O'Malley recently shared his thoughts on the news that Tate and his brother, Tristan, have been arrested on charges of human trafficking.

Speaking on his podcast, TimboSugarShow, O'Malley stated:

"They're clearly intelligent in some ways. If they were making bread, and they were doing it illegally, I don't think they would be on the internet as much, talking as much, as they do. Putting theirselves out there so much if everything wasn't f**king just good."

O'Malley went on to discuss Tristan Tate's podcast, stating:

"That's the debate. People would say, 'oh, I don't want kids - I don't think kids should be listening to this', but I mean if you listen to it, it's like, well, it's not bad. It's good. 'Don't be a b**ch', basically. That's all I'm saying."

Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate are currently being held in detention for 30 days while they await trial in Romania. If convicted of human trafficking, the Tate brothers could reportedly face up to 20 years in prison. They reportedly had their assets seized by the Romanian government.

Sean O'Malley opens up on drawing inspiration from boxing legend Floyd Mayweather

Floyd Mayweather is considered to be one of the greatest boxers of all time. The legendary fighter retired from the sport with a 50-0 record, giving him the most wins without a loss or draw in boxing history. Sean O'Malley recently shared that watching videos of Mayweather training has inspired him.

Speaking on his podcast, TimboSugarShow, the No.1-ranked bantamweight stated:

"I was watching a bunch of Floyd stuff, but that motherf**ker would train like three or four times a day, like an hour at a time. Hit the bags, but constantly having his heart rate probably - I don't know, nothing spiked, maybe too crazy, but you see him hit mitts, hit the bag. Dude, it's so f**king sweet. 50-0, retired at the top, didn't lose. It's inspirational. I'm trying to be 50-0."

Sean O'Malley added that it is impossible to reach the heights that Mayweather did without an incredible work ethic. In addition to his incredible record, the boxing legend retired as the most popular and highest-earning, boxer of all time.
