Top Georgian UFC bantamweight fighter Merab Dvalishvili speculated on the future of the division if the current champion Aljamain Sterling will win the upcoming battle with Sean O'Malley and leave the belt vacant.

“If Sterling moves up to featherweight and vacates the belt, I think I'm number one. Corey Sandhagen also has a winning streak, he beat strong opponents. And we must fight for the belt with him.

If Aljo stays in the division, then Sandhagen is next in line. But if they give me a fight with Corey, I can fight at any time, even in a month. But he has an injury, so it might make sense to wait, ”MMA Junkie quotes Dvalishvili.
