Former UFC lightweight champion Aljamain Sterling and the promotion's welterweight champion Movsar Yevloev got into an altercation on social media. It all started with a post by Yevloyev in which he claimed Sterling was running away from him.
"Diego, I'm ready to give you a rematch at the Sphere because Stehling is running from me. This time I will win early," Yevloyev wrote on social media.
Aljamain responded to those words:
"You're either a lying charlatan or you can't read. Both options don't bode well for you, little brother," Sterling responded.
