    Aiemann Zahabi on Fighting Sean O'Malley, the Bantamweight Title Picture, and Why He Doesn't Want "Dana White Privilege"

    This week on Undefeated and Undisputed, Chael Sonnen and Ian Parker are joined by rising UFC Bantamweight contender Aiemann Zahabi for a candid and fiery conversation ahead of one of the most anticipated fights of the year. Aiemann breaks down his upcoming clash against Sean O'Malley, explaining why he views it as a true title eliminator and revealing his mindset going in: "I'm not going out there to win. I'm going out there to destroy him." He addresses the viral April Fools' joke that briefly had the world believing an interim title was on the line, and reacts to extraordinary praise from former double-champion Henry Cejudo, who has been telling people O'Malley "can't win a round" against Zahabi. The conversation expands into the complex bantamweight title landscape — should Merab Dvalishvili get a rematch after his title shot? Where does Petr Yan stand? And is Umar Nurmagomedov being overlooked? Aiemann also delivers one of the episode's most memorable lines, pushing back against the idea of favoritism in the UFC: "I'd rather it be a meritocracy than all about favoritism and Dana White privilege. I don't want Dana White's privilege. I want to earn it." Key Topics Covered: •The truth behind the Aiemann vs. O'Malley April Fools' joke•Why Aiemann is aiming to "bury" Sean O'Malley •Henry Cejudo's surprising prediction for the fight•Breaking down the bantamweight division: Merab, Yan, and Umar •Earning a title shot vs. "Dana White privilege" •The cards Aiemann hasn't shown yet in the UFCFollow Undefeated and Undisputed on Spotify and subscribe to Smash Cast Media on YouTube for more exclusive MMA interviews and analysis!
