These fighters will meet on April 13 at the UFC 300 anniversary show in Las Vegas, USA.
"I think my advantages will be grappling and speed. And I think I'm a more versatile fighter. His emphasis goes predominantly to boxing. I'm much more likely to land leg kicks, and I have wrestling skills in my arsenal that I believe will help me control the fight," MMA News quoted Sterling as saying.
Recall that for the 34-year-old Sterling, the upcoming fight will be his debut in the welterweight division.
