Speaking in an interview with MiddleEasy recently, Sterling revealed why this doesn’t appear to be in the cards for the immediate future.

“I’m a little banged up, lingering issues from ten years ago,” Sterling began. “It’s just gotten progressively worse with every single fight camp. I’m at a point now where surgery is potentially on the table, just getting some muscle weakness in my arm. If I don’t have some miracle release of my muscles where I can actually start to do push-ups and pull-ups again, I really don’t know what else I’m gonna be able to do other than the surgery.”
Legit or not, that combined with his other post-fight comments casts enough doubt on the guy. He knows he's not going to beat Yan and wants to make some money before he loses the belt. Fuck him. I'm still a newbie UFC fan, but Sterling is officially the first guy I fucking hate.

Decent article about the differences between UFC and Boxing. Nothing earth shattering to most people here.

That's great except he didn't ask for Deontay Wilder money. He asked for 4 times Wilder money.

10m was Wilder money and he turned it down.

And doesn't the rule state that an opponent can't intentionally turn his head so the blows land at the back? If he turns and they land back of the head, they're still legal blows

also, predicted his own doom

Not quite the same since he was on his ass after getting rocked by that uppercut, but yeah. DJ ain't mad about it though. Class act through and through still.

If you are actively turning your head with each strike, maybe. But dude was literally holding his ear against Eddie's face and Eddie was knowingly, repeatedly, punching the back of dude's head. Literally no different than keeping a knee/hand on the ground to avoid knee strikes in other rule sets, and circumventing the rule needs to be punished.

Honestly I wish we had more referee calls like this. Eye pokes, fence grabbing, etc. should be immediately punished. One single of any of them, give a warning. Second foul of a match? Take away a point regardless of infraction. Eddie shouldn't have been DQ'd here but I could get behind a point deduction.

She'd make absolute millions if she starts doing the "real" OnlyFans stuff. She'll still make a hefty chunk off of this type of shit though.

Women who are even halfway decent looking would be absolutely nuts not to start an OnlyFans site. I know a hambeast chick who makes nearly $1,100/month on OnlyFans just with her feet. Literally never has to show her face and just gets constant pedicures/paints her feet different colors. I wish I had a fuckin' 9 inch hog to supplement my income.

Damn she really must be needing money and trying to cash in on her “celebrity” while she can.
