When O’Malley returns at UFC 229 he will face former “Ultimate Fighter: Latin America” competitor Jose Quinonez in a bantamweight bout headed for Las Vegas.

After first bursting on the scene via Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series, O’Malley picked up back-to-back wins inside the Octagon to move his career record to 10-0.

Now O’Malley will face his toughest test to day against Quinonez, who comes into their fight with four wins in a row including a decision victory over Teruto Ishihara in his last bout.

O’Malley vs. Quinonez joins a growing UFC 229 lineup with the card headlined by lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov taking on Conor McGregor.
