Sterling explains why he doesn't like O'Malley's title

Dmitriy Kel Sept. 4, 2023, 4:40 a.m.

Former UFC champion Aljamain Sterling admitted that he was annoyed by the fact that the new leader of the bantamweight division is Sean O'Malley. The American believes that his star compatriot does not set the best example for the younger generation.

“I lost to Sean and it pisses me off because now he is the new bantamweight title holder. When I say "champion" I'm imagining guys like Khabib and Kamaru Usman who are role models. I don't want my kids to look at Sean, see his tattoos on his face, the way he smokes weed, and think it's okay. This is not something worth imitating in life, ”Sportkeeda quotes Sterling.

Recall that on August 19 at UFC 292, O'Malley knocked out Sterling in the second round.
