"Yes, I've heard, but it doesn't hurt me. Umar is doing what he needs to do right now. He needs to speak. So he's talking. Do you know how old Umar is now? 26-27? I don't know exactly either, but at that time I was already a champion, and Umar hasn't been able to do it yet, so it certainly hurts him. Of course, I understand his motivation, his desire to win the title - these are normal, sensible thoughts," said Yan.
We will remind, his next fight Yang will hold on March 10 at UFC 299 against Song Yadong.
