When Aljamain Sterling defeated Johnny Eduardo it represented a lot more than just another top ranked fighter getting a solid (if slightly unsurprising) win in the UFC. It represented an end to Sterling's immediate future as a UFC fighter. His contract was done, and as he hadn't received what he felt was a sufficient offer from the UFC, he was on his way out to test the open market. Of course, this could mean that he ends up right back with the UFC after fielding a few more offers and getting a better sense of his value, or it could mean he's gone; off to fight in Bellator, Rizin, KSW, or some other promotion that puts more value on his rising star.
