Fighter vs. Writer: Matt Brown Previews UFC 299, Predicts When & How Sean O'Malley's Reign Will End

By MMA Fighting

The Fighter vs. The Writer returns with UFC legend Matt Brown and MMA Fighting senior reporter Damon Martin breaking down the biggest fights at UFC 299 and preview the boxing match between Francis Ngannou and Anthony Joshua on Friday. Sean O’Malley defends his title in the main event at UFC 299 when he clashes with Marlon “Chito” Vera, who is the only person to hand him a loss in his career. On paper the fight didn’t make much sense with other contenders ahead of Vera in the rankings but this was a handpicked fight made by O’Malley to avenge his only loss. But does “Chito” have a great chance at winning or is this just O’Malley’s fight to win? Ultimately, Brown explains why it may not matter because he’s not sure the winner of the UFC 299 main event will hold the title for very long, especially with Merab Dvalishvili waiting in the wings. We’ll also discuss the gravity surrounding Dustin Poirier’s latest fight against Benoit Saint Denis and what a win or a loss could mean for his future. Brown also discusses his interest in Michael “Venom” Page finally making his UFC debut and the difficulty he could face against a veteran like Kevin Holland. We’ll also give our breakdown for the Ngannou vs. Joshua fight and debate if that result could potentially decide if “The Predator” ever returns to MMA again or not.
