LANGUAGE WARNING: Bantamweight champion Sean O'Malley and challenger Marlon Vera didn't mince words at the ceremonial weigh-in for UFC 299.

O'Malley & Chito get chirpy at weigh-in | 02:30UFC bantamweight king Sean O’Malley is promising to go steal Alexander Volkanovski’s championship rematch dream this Sunday – and in the same style that has already seen him amass a $600,000 stash of UFC performance bonuses.

Apart from being on a run of five straight wins, O’Malley has also earned a staggering eight UFC performance bonuses – worth US$50,000 each – in his past 10 fights.. Main Event on Kayo Sports and Foxtel is the new exclusive home of UFC Pay-Per-View events!Speaking with Fox Sports Australia this week, the 29-year-old revealed he is yet to touch the growing haul worth $600K Down Under, while also revealing he may add to the pile by selling his Lamborghini.

Asked what Volkanovski should do with his immediate fighting future after consecutive knockout losses, O’Malley suggested the Sydneysider, even at 35, consider sitting out for as long as a year. “Volk is a such big star that when he comes back, he should be able to get a big fight whether Ilia is still the champ or not.”
