UFC President Dana White reacted to the victory of the new champion of the promotion in the bantamweight division Shauna O'Malley over the former belt holder Aljamain Sterling.

Today at UFC 292 in Boston, USA, O'Malley knocked out Sterling in the second round.

“In our organization, there is no such thing as ‘White perks’. Sean got the belt because he earned it. When you think about the last fight, you say to yourself: “How was Sean able to defeat Sterling?”.

Nothing can be predicted here, styles make fights. Sometimes things happen that you don't expect. So Sean O'Malley is not 'going to be a star', he is already a star!" White said at a press conference.
