Former UFC Bantamweight Champion Sean O'Malley has announced he quit smoking weed in preparation for his rematch at UFC 316 against Merab Dvalishvili. O'Malley has been known for his affinity for marijuana, but he decided to stop as part of broader lifestyle changes. Training intensely with notable fighters and detoxing from social media, O'Malley aims to reclaim his title, emphasizing that the decision to quit was influenced by his desire to alleviate anxiety and improve performance rather than solely focused on the upcoming fight.
I don't think I've even smoked this year. I'm not done smoking weed forever. I definitely enjoy it, but it was kind of just giving me this anxiety I didn't really want.
We're stopping social media, we're stopping this, we're stopping that, let's take a little break from it.' And that also feels really good.
