Sean O'Malley said he'd be open to fighting in the 155-pound class, moving up from the 135-pound bantamweight class.

While calling the potential fight "legendary," O'Malley also admitted that the matchup would produce a "huge payday."

 

BetOnline set odds for the bout, and due the jump in class for O'Malley, the line is a straight pick 'em.

Conor McGregor           -110

Sean O'Malley               -110

 

"He's big nowadays," O'Malley said of McGregor's current weight on Bradley Martyn's "Raw Talk" podcast.

"I'm pretty realistic when it comes to big guys," O'Malley said. "I'm like, 'OK, I'm a 135er. I stay in my lane, and I do my thing.' I could go up to 145; I'd fight [Alexander Volkanovski], I'd fight Max [Holloway], I'd fight Ilia [Topuria], but I stay in my lane."

But the idea of a fight with McGregor is tantalizing enough for O'Malley. In fact, he idolizes him.

"Conor's one of the only guys I would fight that I'm like, 'That motherf---er's big,'" O'Malley said. "I would just fight him at 155. First of all, it's a huge payday. Second of all, it's Conor. That would be legendary. So, he's one of the rare guys I would fight that are way out of my weight class."
