Sterling dismantled the fight between Jan and Dvalishvili

Reigning UFC bantamweight title holder Aljamain Sterling knows what his friend and sparring partner Merab Dvalishvili must do to defeat former division champion Petr Yan in his next fight.

“When Ian tries to be super technical, holes appear in his defense and there is space that Merab can use for takedowns,” the American said in another video posted on his YouTube channel. “Or he can just close the distance and push Peter to the net, hold him there, land a couple of punches and clinch him again. Merab’s job will be to push him against the net, deal damage, try to translate, and break him on the ground. Jan’s task is to move away from the net, keep his distance, and deal damage in the stance “

“It will be a very fast paced fight. Peter will have to fight Merab all the time. This is a dangerous fight for Merab, but it is no less dangerous for Petr Yan. When you are at the top of the game, the result is determined by a few inches, so Merab needs to be as focused as possible. I think he already has a plan ready to defeat Jan. He has instructions from O’Malley on how to beat him in the standing position and wrestling instructions from me.”

Recall that the fight in the bantamweight division between Peter Yan and Merab Dvalishvili will be the main event of the UFC Fight Night 221 tournament, which will be held on March 11 in Las Vegas.
