Sterling: O'Malley's popularity doesn't match his talent

Dmitriy Kel June 26, 2023, 3:44 a.m.

UFC Bantamweight Champion Aljamain Sterling motivated to prove in the upcoming fight that his opponent Sean O'Malley highly overrated by mixed martial arts fans.

“His popularity has nothing to do with his talent. I plan to prove it during the fight. This is what turns me on, makes me get up in the morning, go to the gym and work there for hours. Sometimes I feel like I'm training with sharks in an aquarium. I can take these guys eight rounds in a workout. I have this mentality, so I'm preparing for war," Sterling said on Jake Paul's podcast.

The fight between Sterling and O'Malley will be the main event of UFC 292, which will take place on August 19 in Boston, USA.
