Former UFC lightweight champion Aljamain Sterling commented on talk that current titleholder Merab Dvalishvili is avoiding a fight with Umar Nurmagomedov.

"Some people think Merab is afraid of Umar. That's ridiculous. How does everything look in reality? As far as I understand, Merab sticks to his principles. Along the lines of, 'Bro, you ain't done nothing yet! I busted my ass for a title shot and you get it after one win? That's crazy! Especially since you and I are from the same region," Sterling said on his YouTube channel.

Recall, earlier Dvalishvili said that he is ready to fight with Nurmagomedov not before March.
