The bout is crucial for both fighters, as the UFC bantamweight title is on the line. Sterling is quite sure that he will win against O’Malley in their monumental clash. Moreover, he has already planned his next move after defeating ‘Suga.’

After retaining his bantamweight title, Sterling wants to move to the featherweight division and fight against the champion, Alexander Volkanovski. The 34-year-old is not someone who shies away from talking about his future goals. He even revealed his plan in front of his next opponent when they attended an interview together. After listening to Sterling, O’Malley gave his honest opinion about ‘Funk Master’ locking horns against ‘The Great.’ Let’s find out O’Malley’s take on the matter.

After I dominate this fight got my eyes set on Volkanovski at 145.”
