But to be fair, not a lot of people know who Simon is, really. He\u2019s beat a couple dudes in the UFC. I couldn\u2019t tell you how many fights he\u2019s had in the UFC. So he comes in there, he shocks the world, it\u2019s a huge fight for him. Props to him for stepping up to take it.\u201d<\/p>\nDespite the fact that no many people know who Moutinho is, O’Malley knows he can’t take him lightly.

I change people\u2019s careers. Mentally, the way I knock people out, they step into that cage and they\u2019re different the next time they get out there. So it could be the beginning of his career or it could be the end of his career. So, we\u2019ll see.\u201d<\/p>\n
