Tom Taylor - November 8, 2016

UFC welterweight Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone and UFC bantamweight Aljamain “Funk Master” Sterling are both adored by the majority of fight fans. According to an account from Sterling on the latest episode of The MMA Hour, however, the two fighters are not particularly fond of one another. Goaded on by friend and training partner Gian Villante, Sterling reluctantly recounted a heated run-in he had with Cowboy during this year’s International Fight Week, which occured around UFC 200 in July.

Will the UFC start promoting Aljamain Sterling more now that he has re-signed?

Russell Ess - February 15, 2016

It seems like many of the MMA media outlets want to get undefeated bantamweight Aljamain Sterling’s name out there, but are lacking any help from the UFC. Even UFC color commentator Joe Rogan is puzzled why Sterling has not gotten a bigger marketing push from the UFC. The 26-year-old from New York dubbed “The Funkmaster” was shopping around the MMA Market during his free agency after his contract with the UFC was fulfilled. Unlike Benson Henderson who decided to go with Bellator MMA, Sterling re-signed a contract with the UFC.
