  • Hope we can see Sean 3 times in 2024, but at least 2. A super entertaining fighter, great on the mic, promotes himself well. He shit talks, but I don't feel too excessively and does give people there props (while also shit talking them). Can't wait to see him vs Chito, hopefully they can both give us a striking masterclass.

  • Been my selection for the title since watching his first fight. His striking angles are so unique that his opponents don't see them coming. Not massive punching power, but makes up for with pure speed in his hands. Sean keeps his angles and defends the take downs, he will be champ for a number of defenses .... He's a ROCK STAR!!!
