Aljamain Sterling is not opposed to the introduction of an interim UFC title

The current UFC bantamweight champion, Aljamain Sterling, who recently claimed that his injury would only briefly delay the fight against Henry Cejudo, again changed his rhetoric, saying that he would not mind the introduction of an interim championship belt.

“If Henry wants to wait for me, he can wait, or if he wants to take an easier fight, which he considers Sean O’Malley, he can beat Sean,” the American said in the next edition of the MMA Hour. “If Henry says he doesn’t want to wait, maybe they’ll put in a temporary title. I’m not going to get mad about this because at the end of the day the timezone only means that in the unification bout both guys get a percentage of the pay-per-view sales, and I’m known to be in favor of any main card participant in a numbered event getting a percentage. from sales”

At the same time, Sterling did not specify how much he plans to treat the bicep injury, and when he will be able to return to the octagon. Recall that the fight for the bantamweight title between Aljamain Sterling and Henry Cejudo was supposed to be part of the UFC 285 tournament, which will be held on March 4 in Las Vegas.
