LAS VEGAS – Movsar Evloev won’t complain about his long road to a featherweight title shot and is embracing his position more than ever after UFC 310.
Evloev (19-0 MMA, 9-0 UFC) added the biggest win of his career thus far to his undefeated record on Saturday when he outworked UFC bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling to a unanimous decision in their featherweight bout at T-Mobile Arena.
Given his resume now includes Sterling and the likes of Arnold Allen, Diego Lopes and Dan Ige, it would be easy to grant Evloev a shot at reigning 145-pound champ Ilia Topuria. It doesn’t seem like he’s at the forefront of that conversation, though, and Evloev is OK with that.
