Adin Ross Hooks Sean O'Malley Up W/ Car ... Custom 'Suga' Candy Paint Low Rider!!!
Sean O'Malley's proving it pays to be one of the UFC's biggest stars ... especially when you've got friends like Adin Ross, who just hooked the MMA champ up with a custom "Suga" candy paint low rider!
The streamer surprised the bantamweight title holder weeks after Sean defended his belt against 'Chito' Vera at UFC 299, his 18th win as a professional.
When it came time to gift O'Malley the whip, he was in pure shock when he removed the blindfold, revealing the hot pink 1975 Chevy Caprice, and he (justifiedly) went crazy!
"No way!" O'Malley yelled. "What?! Bro! Haha! That's crazy!"
O'Malley took the car for a spin straight away ... moments after he secured the keys and got a tutorial on how to raise and lower the ride with the hydraulic suspension.
The car's sick ... from the deep, rich, metallic paint to the chromed-out suspension.
Of course, the low rider -- from the High Class Car Club in Glendale -- fits O'Malley's personality perfectly ... as he's known for his vibrant hair color and style.
Ross -- who went forward with the gift despite receiving an ass whoopin' in the cage during a sparring sesh earlier in the day -- also said he has an Audemars Piguet luxury watch for Sean.
"You're a legend!" Ross said. "You're a champ!"

Jake Gyllenhaal's new flick, "Road House," packs one helluva punch ... but Key West's Mayor ain't too thrilled with how their sunny paradise has been portrayed on-screen.
Teri Johnston, the mayor of Key West, tells TMZ ... while she hasn't caught the film, she's not pleased with its rowdy, drug-filled, and crime-ridden portrayal of the Florida Keys ... saying that might've been The Keys in the '70s and '80s, but it's a whole new ball game in 2024!
Mayor Johnston lays down the facts ... telling us 90% of Key West residents are transplants -- representing a diverse mix of environmentalists, artists, business owners, teachers, firefighters, and police officers.

UFC's Michael Chandler Confirms McGregor Fight Is On!!! 👊 ... Goin' Down This Summer

Exclusive

News confirmed! Conor McGregor vs. Michael Chandler is finally happening!
Days after The Notorious told reporters he would fight Iron Mike this summer, 37-year-old Chandler joined Babcock on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs weekdays on FS1) ... and we asked him if McGregor was being truthful, or just blowing smoke.
"I've got the official announcement. It's happening this summer," Chandler said, adding, "I can't tell you the actual date, but it's happening this summer!"
We followed up ... so it's official?!
"We have an agreement. We are fighting this summer."
Ears, meet music.
Of course, the Michael and Conor fight has been in the works forever ... going back to mid-2023 when the men coached opposite one another on "The Ultimate Fighter."
So, Conor the coach has been relatively active ... but not necessarily the fighter. That's because in addition to shooting the highly anticipated "Road House" remake (which dropped yesterday on Prime), McGregor was also healing up.

Remember, McGregor gruesomely broke his lower leg during his UFC 264 scrap with Dustin Poirier in July 2021. That was his last fight.
As for Chandler, he too last faced Poirier ... in November 2022.
Bottom line, both guys are ready to get back in the Octagon ... and although the date isn't publicly known, it's not that far off (check out the clip -- we also talk about which weight class the fight will be contested in.)
"It's been an interesting ride. It's been a fun ride. It's what I signed up for. But now we're getting darn close, man. We are getting really close. He's starting training. I'm starting training and we're going to collide this summer, so it's going to be a lot of fun."

CONOR MCGREGOR DESNUDO PARA "ROAD HOUSE"
Conor McGregor se desnudó completamente en la nueva película "Road House", y tenemos que admitir que el tipo tiene un buen culo.
Las mejillas de la superestrella de la UFC tienen un breve cameo en el nuevo proyecto de Prime Video que se estrenó el jueves, donde por un momento, Conor aparece vistiendo nada más que una sonrisa en su rostro.
No vamos a revelar ningún spoiler de la película -literalmente acaba de estrenarse- pero teniendo en cuenta Conor ha hablado de la escena del desnudo en la gira de promoción previa al lanzamiento, es justo hablar de su retaguardia.
Es bastante gracioso, Conor declaró anteriormente que no tenía ni idea de que su personaje "Knox" se mostraría desnudo, pero su dedicación le impidió rechazar la oportunidad de mostrarlo todo.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Por supuesto, "Road House" es una re-imaginación del clásico de culto de 1989, y el difunto Patrick Swayze también muestra su trasero en el original, por lo que al parecer se ha convertido en toda una tradición para los hombres mostrar piel en estas películas.
Ha habido un montón de ruido en torno a la película dirigida por Jake Gyllenhaal, no solo Conor tiene un papel importante, Post Malone también muestra su talento como actor.
Está claro que Conor ha estado trabajando en sus sentadillas y empujes de cadera en su tiempo fuera del Octágono... eso es seguro.

Conor McGregor Butt Naked For 'Road House' ... Mac Got Back!!!
Conor McGregor got fully naked for his role in the new "Road House" movie ... and we can't even front -- the dude has a nice ass.
The UFC superstar's cheeks make a brief cameo in the new Prime Video project that dropped on Thursday ... when at one point, Conor shows up wearing nothing but a smile on his face.
We're not going to reveal any spoilers -- the flick literally just dropped -- but considering Conor has talked about the nude scene in the promo tour leading up to the release, it's fair game to talk about the dude's peach.
It's pretty funny -- Conor previously stated he had no idea his "Knox" character would be shown in the buff ... but his dedication to the role kept him from turning down the opportunity to lay it all on the line.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Of course, "Road House" is a re-imagining of the 1989 cult classic ... and the late Patrick Swayze also shows off his tush in the original, too -- so apparently it's become quite the tradition for dudes to show skin in these flicks.
There's been a ton of hype around the Jake Gyllenhaal-led movie -- not only does Conor have a big role, but Post Malone also shows off his acting chops as well.
It's clear Conor's been working on his squats and hip thrusts in his time away from the Octagon ... that's for damn sure.

CONOR MCGREGOR TENDRÁ MÁS PAPELES COMO ACTOR Tras su debut en "Roadhouse"
Conor McGregor le dice a TMZ Sports que su papel en el nuevo reboot de "Road House" estará lejos de ser su última aparición en la gran pantalla.
La superestrella de la UFC no se anduvo con rodeos cuando le preguntamos sobre su futuro como actor mientras estaba en Nueva York promocionando la nueva película con Jake Gyllenhaal, diciéndonos que "por supuesto" que está planeando seguir con su nueva carrera.
No está claro exactamente lo que está por venir para el luchador de 35 años de edad, pero cuando le preguntamos si tenía más papeles en mente, nos dijo: "¡Por supuesto, por supuesto!".
"¡Oh, sí!", añadió.
Por el momento parece que le está yendo muy bien. Las primeras críticas de "Road House" han sido positivas, y los clips que hemos podido ver hasta ahora muestran que McGregor sabe cómo patear traseros en cámara.
Por supuesto, McGregor sigue con su trabajo como luchador a pesar de su incursión en Hollywood, y ha estado entrenando duro para un futuro combate con Michael Chandler.
Parece que se está empezando a acostumbrar a los paparazzis... y probablemente comencemos a verlo más seguido en estos ambientes.

Conor McGregor tells TMZ Sports his role in the new "Road House" reboot will be far from his last appearance on the silver screen ... saying this week he's got a whole lot more irons in the cinema fire.
The UFC superstar made no bones about it when we asked him about his acting future while he was out in NYC promoting the new Jake Gyllenhaal flick ... telling us "of course" he's planning to keep pursuing the new career.
It's unclear exactly what's coming next for the 35-year-old fighter ... but when we asked if he had any more roles lined up at the moment -- he said straight up, "For sure, for sure!"
"Oh, yes!" he added.
As for how job No. 1 in the new industry went for The Notorious, so far, it seems so good. Early reviews for the "Road House" reimagining are positive ... and the clips we've gotten to see so far show McGregor certainly knows how to kick ass on command on cam.
Of course, McGregor's still keeping up with his day job despite the foray into Hollywood ... he's been training hard for a future bout with Michael Chandler.
But, first, it seems it'll be all about schmoozing for paps on red carpets for now ... something we all apparently better get used to seeing from McGregor going forward.

Jake Gyllenhaal I Sliced Hand In Fight W/ Conor ... Got Staph Infection
Jake Gyllenhaal says he suffered a nasty injury while shooting the new "Road House" movie with Conor McGregor ... revealing he cut his hand right open during an intense fight scene -- and ended up with a staph infection.
The Academy Award nominee and UFC superstar opened up on working together on set during a recent episode of "Armchair Expert" with Dax Shepard ... and while they both praised each other's professionalism, there was a bit of bad blood involved.
Gyllenhaal -- who plays former MMA fighter Elwood Dalton in the flick -- explained he was shooting an intense showdown with Conor's character, Knox ... and the scene involved a ton of breakaway glass.
As it turns out, it didn't matter if it was real or fake ... 'cause when Gyllenhaal put his hand down on the bar in the middle of the take, a piece went right through his mitt.
But, there was no quit in the lead actor -- he said he trucked through the shot and finished the scene because they had already run through it several times and he knew this take was a good one.
Once the director called "cut" -- shoutout irony -- Gyllenhaal said he looked down at his hand and noticed his whole arm had swelled up ... and he later found out it was a staph infection.
Of course, staph can be a real pain in the ass ... but it can also be deadly in some cases if it goes untreated.
Luckily, Jakey G is still kickin' ... and he said that was really the only injury he had while filming the Prime Video flick.
Conor ain't the only big-name non-actor in the project -- Post Malone also showed off his acting chops ... and based on BTS pics, the musician got pretty bloody, too.
The movie hits the streaming platform on Thursday ... so those queasy better be ready for some violence!!

JAKE GYLLENHAAL "CONOR ME REBANÓ LA MANO EN UNA PELEA" Termina con una infección
Jake Gyllenhaal dice que sufrió una lesión desagradable durante el rodaje de la nueva película "Road House" con Conor McGregor, revelando que se cortó la mano durante una intensa escena de lucha, y terminó con una infección por estafilococos.
El nominado al Oscar y la superestrella de la UFC se abrieron sobre el trabajo en el set durante un reciente episodio de "Armchair Expert" con Dax Shepard, y mientras que ambos elogiaron el profesionalismo del otro, hubo un poco de mala sangre involucrada.
Gyllenhaal -que interpreta al ex luchador de MMA Elwood Dalton en la película- explicó que estaba filmando un intenso enfrentamiento con el personaje de Conor -Knox- en el cual había vidrios rotos involucrados.
Resulta que no importaba si era real o falso... porque cuando Gyllenhaal puso la mano en la barra en medio de la toma, un trozo atravesó su guante.
El actor principal no se dio por vencido, y siguió adelante con la toma. Finalmente terminó la escena luego de haberla hecho varias veces.
Una vez que el director dijo "corten", Gyllenhaal dijo que miró hacia abajo y se dio cuenta de que tenía el brazo hinchado... más tarde se enteró de que estaba infectado con estafilococos.
Por supuesto, el estafilococo puede ser un verdadero dolor de cabeza, pero también puede ser mortal en algunos casos si no se trata.
Por suerte, Jakey sigue pateando, y dijo que era realmente la única lesión que tuvo durante el rodaje de la película de Prime Video.
Conor no es el único no-actor de renombre en el proyecto. Post Malone también mostró sus habilidades de actuación, y basándonos en las fotos, al músico también le tocaron escenas sangrientas.
La película llega a la plataforma de streaming el jueves, ¡así que prepárense para un poco de violencia!

Merab Dvalishvili admits he was pissed when Sean O'Malley called out Ilia Topuria after the UFC 299 main event, but the title contender isn't sweatin' Suga's words 'cause the big guy, Dana White, told him the fights his!
"I did see Dana for a little bit. I just said hi, and I believe he told me, 'You are next.' That's what he told me," 33-year-old Dvalishvili told TMZ Sports, adding, "We all know I'm next. I'm very confident I'm gonna fight Sean."
Merab was in the building at the Kaseya Center in Miami ... and watched 29-year-old O'Malley put on a masterful performance against Marlon "Chito" Vera, winning by unanimous decision.
FYI, Dvalishvili is the #1 ranked bantamweight contender, and is in the midst of a 10-fight win streak which includes wins over Henry Cejudo, Petr Yan, Marlon Moraes, and Jose Aldo.
"It's so stupid from Sean that he's not mentioning my name. Especially because this fight is going to happen, and he could make it big," Dvalishvili said showing his frustration with O'Malley.
Despite not loving the post-299 call-out, Merab still has a healthy dose of respect for Sean.
"I have so much respect for Sean as a fighter. He's a great fighter. I look at him as a big challenge. From 2018, I wanted to fight him because I see a big challenge. He's tall, he's quick, he's got knockout power. Good footwork. He's gonna be hard challenge fight for me and I'm ready for this challenge and I don't take this fight as an easy fight."

Callum Walsh, Irish Boxing Star Not Trying Be The Next McGregor ... Making My Own Legacy!
-
Exclusive
- 91 shares
Callum Walsh may look and sound like Conor McGregor (after all, they're both Irish!), but the undefeated boxer tells TMZ Sports he's NOT trying to be a carbon copy of the UFC star!
Walsh is an up-and-coming super welterweight boxing star with a main event at Madison Square Garden on March 15 against Dauren Yeleussinov, his second fight at the iconic arena in the last four months.
Making the event even more special, it's St. Patrick's Day weekend, and Callum is pumped!
"It's unbelievable," the Irish boxer told us, adding, "I'm very grateful to be able to do this at such a young age."
Because of his Irish nationality and fighting talent, many, including Dana White (who works with CW), see him being the next McGregor ... but it's a comparison he doesn't love.
"I'm trying to make my own path and do my own thing," the 23-year-old said.
"I'm never trying to copy anybody or be like anyone. Everyone always says 'Oh you wanna be like the Conor McGregor of boxing'. I'm just trying to be Callum Walsh."
That's no disrespect to McGregor ... Walsh and Conor have met before, and Callum says McGregor was somewhat of a role model for him when he was younger.
But, he wants to be himself, not another star fighter.
"I'm just trying to do my own thing, try make my own path. Leave my own legacy," Callum said.
With a 9-0 record, Walsh is on the way ... and hopes to keep his winning streak alive by knocking out Yeleussinov (11-3, 10 KO) at MSG Friday night.
"I'm always looking for the knockout in every fight," Walsh said.
And, when it comes to his next target, Walsh is down for whoever, whenever ... and that includes McGregor if it comes down to it!
