It was very odd to me. Rolling backwards to all 4âs isnât showing intelligent defense, I guess. I never âwent outâ, was moving the on the ground, but thatâs the game. All comes down to the ref judgement, which is out of my control. I shouldâve never rushed the 2nd RD action. Thatâs on me.
Sterling, 34, had his previous â€fight in May 2023 at UFC 288, defeating Henry Cejudo by split decision. He has 23 wins and four losses under his belt.
Oê§'Malley, 28, previously stepped into the octagon in October 2022 at UFC 280, defeating Pđetr Yan by split decision. He has 17 wins and one loss on his record.
