Aljamain Sterling maintained his position atop arguably the deepest division in the sport Saturday when he defended the bantamweight title against Henry Cejudo in the UFC 288 headliner.
Sterling (23-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC) logged a third consecutive title defense when he edged returning former champ Cejudo (16-3 MMA, 10-3 UFC) by split decision at Prudential Center in Newark, N.J., and inched further to having the most complete resume in the division’s history.
