Sean O’Malley Gives Update on His Recovery, Targeting October Return

Sean O’Malley appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience and discussed his recovery status, plus more. Highlights are below:

On his recovery: “I got an X-ray last time and they said, ‘Everything looks good, come back in four weeks and we’ll clear you.’ I know how my foot feels. There’s days where it’s really sore and there’s days where it’s like, ‘Dude, it’s good.’ I feel about 80, 85 percent.”

On missingf out on the main event of TUF 26 Finale: “I was supposed to headline that card; I was so excited for that. I think next fight is going to be Oct. 6 in Vegas, the pay-per-view. Hopefully (I’ll) get on that card, but after that, hopefully headline my own. I’d like to fight two more times before the end of the year. (I’m) healing; everything is going good. So I’m hoping Oct. 6, and then maybe November, December.”
