Reigning UFC bantamweight champion, Aljamain Sterling, has denied Team Henry Cejudo’s claim that their fight was a huge financial success and sold 700,000 pay-per-view broadcasts.
“Do you know how many pay-per-views we sold? Seven hundred thousand! ”, – said the coach of the Triple Champion, Eric Albarracin, in the next edition of the MMA Hour program. “He should thank us for this. He himself would not have collected two hundred thousand PPV. This fight brought together seven hundred thousand. That’s more than double anything he’s ever seen.”
According to Sterling, actual sales were much more modest.
“Yesterday I was told that we will be lucky if we pass the mark of two hundred and fifty thousand PPV, and you lie on the air that we made seven hundred thousand? Are you on the bottle today, bro? ”, The UFC champion wrote on the social network, commenting on Albarracin’s statement.
Recall that the bantamweight title fight, which headlined the UFC 288 tournament in Newark on May 6, went through all five rounds and ended with the victory of the current champion by a separate judicial decision.
