Related Topics: Aljamain Sterling, Brian Ortega

UFC featherweight Aljamain Sterling has explained why he isn’t a fan of his upcoming fight against Brian Ortega being five rounds instead of three.

This weekend, Aljamain Sterling will lock horns with Brian Ortega in the co-main event of UFC Shanghai. If he wins, the former bantamweight champion could vault himself right into title contention at 145 pounds. Of course, getting through Ortega is going to be easier said than done.

He will, however, have longer to do so, with Aljamain Sterling vs Brian Ortega being scheduled for five rounds instead of the usual three.
