Aljamain Sterling calls Sean O’Malley’s theory “Art of war” ahead of UFC 306
In a recent interview with Helen Yee, Sterling responded to O’Malley’s theory.
“I think it’s simply the art of war,” Sterling said of O’Malley’s comments. “He’s just looking for things to kind of tug out to see if he can get in Merab’s head a little bit. But it’s of no effect. It’s just cute to see him try to do stuff like that, but it’s going to be a great fight. So I’m excited about that. I don’t think we can fake this, we’re literally neighbors. I’m not sure how you can fake that, but I guess .”
Sterling was a key part of Dvalishvili’s fight camp due to his familiarity with O’Malley. Dvalishvili earned the title shot after recent wins over former champions Petr Yan and Henry Cejudo.
As Sterling puts his bantamweight run in the past, he’s focused on his upcoming return against Movsar Evloev. Dvalishvili will look to get one back for his team and for Sterling, who still questions O’Malley’s persona.
