UFC bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling is confident he could pose a stern challenge to featherweight champ Alexander Volkanovski . Sterling (23-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC) defeated Henry Cejudo by split decision in the UFC 288 headliner and proceeded to call Sean O’Malley into the octagon for a faceoff. Featherweight champion Volkanovski scored the fight in favor of Sterling but wasn’t too impressed . Prior to fighting Cejudo, Sterling had mapped out a two-fight plan that would lead to challenging Volkanovski (25-2 MMA, 12-1 UFC) for his 145-pound title.
