O'Malley acknowledged his need for a break stating, "...it would be nice to take a legit full-on break without something like, 'Oh this is next, this is next.'" He emphasized the importance of fully healing, saying he won't fight for nine to ten months, aligning his recovery period with the desire to step back from the sport to recuperate.
Reflecting on his recent match against Dvalishvili, O'Malley expressed his feelings of inadequacy: "Outside of a last round flurry of teeps to the body that had Dvalishvili visibly hurt, I was largely on the wrong side of a one-sided beatdown for five rounds." This highlights his need to regain confidence and fitness.
