Aljamain Sterling Slams UFC for Snubbing Arman Tsarukyan in Interim Title Fight

Ex-bantamweight champion said Tsarukyan did everything required of a top contender, yet watched Justin Gaethje and Paddy Pimblett get the lightweight interim title shot. He noted that Tsarukyan weighed in as a backup at UFC 317 and later defended his No.1 contender spot against Dan Hooker on November 22, adding, “Arman would have taken the fight; sucks to see that.”
