Aljamain Sterling reacts to Sean O’Malley/Merab Dvalishvili faceoff
In a current look on The MMA Hour, Sterling weighed in on the meat between him, Dvalishvili, and coach Tim Welch.
“I do know O’Malley is sitting right here, ‘I want you’ll combat him, there’s weight courses for a cause,’ but when we need to communicate info, Tim Welch needs he may do half of what Merab and I’ve achieved,” Sterling stated. “Needs. So weight courses will not be [all that matters]. There’s a talent distinction between the three of us and I feel he understands that. Whether or not it’s a road combat, cage combat, it doesn’t matter. I’m not even making an attempt to take it there. Let’s simply name it what it’s. In the event you’re making an attempt to take a seat there and say, ‘I want you’ll see what is going to occur,’ OK. In case your coach is actually about that life, have him get froggy and leap. It’s that straightforward.” (h/t MMA Combating)
Sterling, Dvalishvili, O’Malley, and Welch exchanged social media threats earlier this yr. In the course of the exchanges, a road combat was proposed between Welch and Dvalishvili, though cooler heads in the end prevailed.
Tensions are ramping up forward of UFC 306, and Sterling might be a serious a part of Dvalishvili’s preparation for O’Malley. Welch and Sterling will probably come face-to-face quickly, resulting in a possible heated confrontation.
