Sean
\nO’Malley<\/a> believes Aleksandre
\nTopuria<\/a> doesn\u2019t like him. <\/p>\n

O\u2019Malley (20-3) defeated Aiemann
\nZahabi<\/a> via a second-round knockout at
\nUFC White House<\/a> earlier this month. Meanwhile, Ilia
\nTopuria<\/a> lost his lightweight title to Justin
\nGaethje<\/a> in a massive upset on the same card. Ilia\u2019s elder
\nbrother, UFC bantamweight Aleksandre, cornered his brother at the
\nWhite House. <\/p>\n

O\u2019Malley came across Topuria and his team backstage at the White
\nHouse. While O\u2019Malley and Ilia have traded barbs in the past,
\n\u201cSuga\u201d believes there are no hard feeling between them. However,
\nO\u2019Malley believes Aleksandre doesn\u2019t like him. O\u2019Malley claims that
\nwhile he shook hands with Ilia\u2019s entire team, Aleksandre refused to
\nacknowledge him.<\/p>\n

Lingering Animosity<\/h2>\n

\u201cIf Ilia\u2019s heard me talk about him, he knows I think he is one of
\nthe greatest of all time,\u201d O\u2019Malley said on Tim Welche\u2019s YouTube<\/a> channel. \u201cI made a couple of short
\njokes, he\u2019s made fun of me, like, \u2018Ugly tattoo.\u2019… But his brother
\ndidn\u2019t look at me. I shook all of his team\u2019s hands, acknowledged.
\nBut his brother did not look at me, wouldn\u2019t look at me at all.
\nDoesn\u2019t like me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ilia (17-1) suffered his first professional loss against Gaethje at
\nthe White House. Gaethje handed \u201cEl Matador\u201d a brutal beating,
\nforcing his corner to throw in the towel after the fourth round.
\nMeanwhile, Aleksandre (7-1) has won both of his
\nUFC<\/a> outings via unanimous decision so far.  <\/p>\n
