JAKARTA - Sean O'Gini really had the power of Conor McGregor's star when he just became known at the UFC.
But the Irish star didn't really become what it is today until he had to fight Jose Aldo for the unification belt for the Badminton Class Championships.
O'Petr Yan has repeatedly proven he is capable of winning, but the UFC 280 fight against Petr Yan seems to be his toughest task so far.
President Dana White recently spoke to the press about the upcoming O'Gravity fight in Abu Dhabi. This will be one of the three exciting master card fights and perhaps one of the most expected of fans.
White believes O' way to have star powers similar to Conor McGregor, but there is one more step he needs to take.
White seems to think the upcoming fight against Petr Yan is what O'G needs to become a bona fide UFC super star. This is what he told Aaron Bronsteter of TSN.
"O'Gold to be at the top of being a big global superstar. There was talk before about Conor, he said, 'I want to be as big as Conor' and things like that," White was quoted as saying by Marca, Wednesday.
"Well, if you want to compare it to Conor - it's like a Conor vs Jose Aldo fight. When you have a star power like that and you have that, people are also interested, then it's about winning a key fight like this. For O' way, he won this fight on Saturday, his whole life changed on Sunday."
With O'Applying very different from McGregor, they have a very different approach in life. Inside the octagon is where things get interesting.
They both have devastating knockout powers and are equally agile as they approach opponents. Speed is another virtue that they both share and arrogance is their main presentation card.
Can 'Suga Sean' become a new Conor? Still to be seen.
