Merab Dvalishvili, the UFC bantamweight champion, spoke highly of former UFC champion in this division Aljamain Sterling.
“Let me say something, guys. In this training camp, my friend Aljamain Sterling helped me a lot; he doesn’t have a fight right now, he is preparing for his wedding. He doesn’t like to spar, but he sparred with me three times in a week. And he was twice better than Sean. This is proof that the best fighter doesn’t always win. O’Malley really got lucky against Aljo,” said Dvalishvili at the press conference after UFC 316.
