Former UFC champion in two weight divisions Henry Cejudo talked about who the title holder in the bantamweight division will share the octagon with Aljamain Sterling in the next fight.
“I would consider a fight between Sterling and O’Malley right now. Yesterday I said that Cejudo would fight for the belt, and I believe in this, because Sean needs time to recover from the fight with Jan.
In terms of pay-per-view sales and overall appeal of the fight, this is Sterling vs. O'Malley. In the end, it doesn't matter what people say - after the fight with Yang, his hand was raised. But from the sports side, it is Cejudo who deserves to meet the champion more. This guy left as a double champion. However, I think O'Malley will get the fight," Cormier said in his podcast.
Recall that on October 22 at the UFC 280 tournament, Sterling defended his belt for the second time, defeating T.J. Dillashaw by technical knockout.
