The ‘Funk Master‘ tried his best to regain his composure but he wasn’t in the position to continue. Referee Marc Smith had no other choice but to disqualify Yan for the attempt.
Consequent to the disqualification, Sterling won the fight and became the new Bantamweight champion.
After the fight, sterling was very unhappy with the way things went and in the post-fight interview with Joe Rogan, the fighter expressed his views. Sterling told Rogan “Everything I worked for to this point, to have the fight go like that, I thought it was close, I thought I was down two rounds. That’s not the way I wanted to win. That’s not how I envisioned this. I took the belt off. I was in bad shape and it would’ve been ego making me fight on.“
The next fight between Yan and Sterling is all set to take place at UFC 273 on April 9, 2022, inside the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena, Florida.
