Marlon Vera gave a prediction for the upcoming fight between Aljamain Sterling and TJ Dillashaw.
“Honestly, it's hard to predict anything. I believe that TJ will be aggressive in this fight. Aljamain is not the kind of guy who will stand in front of his opponent and be ready to die or break his head. He always tries to grab his opponent, tire him out, and then beat him up in the hope of submission. Sterling fought like this his whole career. This does not mean that he is a bad fighter and cannot defeat you. Yes, he will not be aggressive in battle and go forward, but Aljamain will ruin any fighter's night if he is taken lightly. I think this fight is all about fighting and controlling, but TJ is also a good fighter. He went through wrestling school. If Dillashaw can stay out of the fight and still apply pressure, then Sterling is in for a very tough night. Aljamain is very uncomfortable when an opponent blocks his takedowns.
Recall that the fight between Sterling and Dillashaw will be held on October 22 in Abu Dhabi.
