Pretty much everyone watching the fight, bar Soukhamthath's loved ones, scored the fight in favour of 23-year-old O'Malley. His work in the first two rounds meant that his adversary required a finish to get his hand raised. The finish probably would have come had Soukhamthath remained on his feet, but his baffling tactics meant he lost the unanimous decision.
