Aljamain Sterling and Petr Yan are on track for a bantamweight championship rematch, but Sterling feels that Yan is fortunate to be getting another shot so soon.
The first fighter to win a UFC title via disqualification, Sterling has talked plenty about the illegal knee strike that Yan caught him with at UFC 259 that ended their fight in controversial fashion. Sterling appeared as a guest fighter to speak to the media this past Friday and he elaborated further on why he thinks it’s somewhat odd that Yan is in line for an immediate rematch given the circumstances.
