Aljamain Sterling Tells Petr Yan: “Go Wrestle At Your F–king Gym”
Aljamain Sterling is reportedly going to be the next fighter to face UFC bantamweight champion Petr Yan and Sterling would like to have the fight at UFC 256.
Sterling and Yan recently had a brief exchange on Twitter, where Yan revealed there may be a hitch to the plans put forth by Sterling (via MMA Fighting):
Sterling: “I’m free that day. @PetrYanUFC what do you have planned? @danawhite @seanshelby @Mickmaynard2”
Yan: “I heard UFC have different plans, hold up is not from my side. You should be worried @funkmasterMMA”
Sterling: “The only person I see worried is the guy hiding in Dagestan. Go wrestle at your fucking gym!”
UFC 256 is in need of a new main event after the welterweight title bout between Kamaru Usman and Gilbert Burns was pulled from the card and a bantamweight title bout between Yan and Sterling can definitely be an acceptable replacement main event.
