All right, guys. Hey, UFC Freedom 250 goes down this Sunday from the South Lawn at the United States White House. And I'm joined by the Sugar Show, Sean O'Malley. Sean, my brother, thank you so much for tapping in with me again, man. I appreciate it. Big time fight card. Here's the thing, though, Sean. We sat down. We're getting into this thing. I'm getting to know Sean. Guys, I'm getting to know Sean. He telling me about his history. He telling me about his job, all this other stuff. I tell him, Sean. Would you like to be on the White House? Oh, you know, D.C., man, I might. I might, man. I don't know. Next morning, Sean's on the White House. I mean, come on, my brother.
You could have told me. Maybe not on camera. I hope Hunter sees this and says, hey, we can trust him with a secret. That's what Hunter told me. Hey, I'm fighting at the White House. Don't tell anybody. I'm like, I took that as all right. I'm not going to tell anybody. I don't want anything to happen. So hopefully you know if you ever need to tell me a secret, D.C., that I'll keep it.
I mean, if I have a secret from you, I think I got to keep one from you.
Which one?
I hope I find out, like, you're fighting for the belt and then you want to know and I'm not going to tell you. That's the only thing I can do, right? Like, everything else you're going to know before me. Sean, so you get that call that you're fighting at the White House. You spoke about how excited you would be to have this opportunity. You get it. What was the reaction, right? Being that you had kind of laid the foundation for possibly being in this position.
Yeah, I mean, opening up the Paramount card in January, I knew the White House card. I think it was still June, July. They didn't know. I'm like, that works out perfectly. I get out of this fight healthy. June, July lines up perfectly. And, you know, it's so weird looking back on my career, like the first Cheeto loss, how it led to great things, and then the Marab loss. And then it's, you know, I'm fighting at the White House right now. Who knows? If I would have won the belt and the timing didn't work out. It all works out for a reason. We're fighting. And I love this stylistic matchup for me. This is made for me to go out there and knock this dude out.
So when you get Amon Zahabi as an opponent, right? You get the White House, but... It's not necessarily that big, flashy name that generally is alongside Sean O'Malley, right?
What is the significance of UFC Freedom 250 at the White House?
Because most times, it's Sean O'Malley, Rob, Cheeto, Aljo, like big-name guys, not a guy like Amon Zahabi. Were you surprised that that was the guy? Because he was calling for you, but there are instances where I go, well... Benoit Sandin, he called out Dustin Poirier, and I was like, he could call him out as much as he wanted. He'll never get it. Then he got it. Zahabi calls him, calls you out, and I'm like, I don't think he'll get that fight.
