UFC fighter Corey Sandhagen believes that Russian Peter Yan will defeat Aljamain Sterling in a rematch.
“Based on the first fight and the fact that Ian is generally good, I think Petr will beat Sterling. Yes, Sterling is also not bad, but Ian defends very well, besides, he is extremely dangerous in a fight, this is not an easy opponent, ”Sandhagen quotes MMAFIghting as saying.
In October, Sandhagen lost to Jan via unanimous decision at UFC 267.
Peter Yan and Aljamain Sterling met in the octagon in March of this year as part of the UFC 259 tournament. The Russian fighter lost as a result of disqualification for an illegal knee to the head. Due to this defeat, Yang lost the UFC bantamweight championship belt.
On December 22, UFC head Dana White announced that the promotion had begun work on organizing a second fight between Jan and Sterling.
