The reason for the joke was O’Malley’s statement that he would like to see Cejudo fight the reigning UFC bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling in March in order to fight the winner in the summer.
O’Malley: I want to fight in July, that’s the latest, so Aljo and Henry should fight in March. Not in April. Hurry up!”
Cejudo: “Hey Sean, you need to fight Paddy – the judges won’t know who to rob”
O’Malley: “Shut up and make me a burrito!”
Cejudo: “I’ll do one for Petr Yan, but the judges will give it to you”
Recall that on October 22 at UFC 280 in Abu Dhabi, Sean O’Malley defeated Petr Yan by split decision, and last weekend at UFC 282 in Las Vegas, the judges were extremely supportive of British lightweight Paddy Pimblett, who was presented with a victory in a duel against Jared Gordon.
