Sterling hit on Ian

Reigning UFC lightweight champion Aljamein Sterling again touched on Petr Yang. He stated that the lightest division is in this situation because of the Russian fighter.

"This whole situation could have been avoided. I hope fans who have a brain understand that the entire weight division in the UFC was only put in this situation because of Petr Yan. He couldn't win the fight despite his dominance. He kicked my ass. That's a fact. So the only one to blame is himself and his stupidity. I'm sorry the underdog didn't follow the rules," Sterling stated.
