Jan: "I'll try to beat Sterling ahead of time"

Dmitriy Kel Feb. 3, 2022, 2:40 a.m.

Interim UFC Bantamweight Champion Petr Yan shared his expectations from the fight with Aljamain Sterling April 9 at UFC 273.

“The mood for the fight is excellent. The fight is still a long way off, but Sterling will be crying on April 9th. We will try to win ahead of schedule, Sterling will not merge. This is irrelevant - it is not in his interests to merge from the fight, since this is his only chance to fight for the belt, for PPV.

If everything goes well, I will fight again before the end of the year. There are no options to fight more often, because when you fight at this level, there are not so many contenders and they don’t give fights so often,” Yang said live on Instagram.
