LAS VEGAS – Sean O'Malley isn’t buying that Aljamain Sterling is fighting against his will.
O’Malley (16-1 MMA, 8-1 UFC) challenges bantamweight champion Sterling (23-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC) in the UFC 292 headliner on Aug. 19 at TD Garden in Boston.
Sterling recently claimed that he’s fighting O’Malley against his will due to the quick turnaround. However, O’Malley thinks “The Funkmaster” is just setting up an excuse by saying he’s not 100 percent healthy.
