Former UFC lightweight champion Aljamain Sterling has denied that he may fight Movsar Yevloyev.
"Not many people know who Movsar is, although he is very tough, a very good fighter. When I asked my friends about Movsar, they didn't understand who we were talking about.
I don't know if a fight between me and Movsar makes any sense in terms of advancing in a title fight. I think it's just a fight, nothing more. And personally, I don't know about any possible fight with Movsar Evloyev," - quotes Sterling Championship Rounds.
Sterling made his featherweight debut at UFC 300 on April 13, defeating Kelvin Kattar by decision.
