Jon Anik: Aljamain Sterling ‘borderline bullied’ into UFC 292 title defense, but ‘they didn’t hold a gun to his head’

Jon Anik thinks Aljamain Sterling was pressured into defending his title at UFC 292 . Bantamweight champion Sterling (23-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC) will look to extend his record for most title defenses in the division’s history when he takes on Sean O’Malley (16-1 MMA, 8-1 UFC) in the Aug. 19 main event at TD Garden in Boston. Sterling will be making a three-month turnaround after retaining his belt in a five-round battle against Henry Cejudo at UFC 288 in May.
