Sterling, the current undisputed bantamweight champion, is slated to make his return to the Octagon at UFC 292 next weekend in Boston, Massachusetts, headlining the TD Garden card in a title defense against the current number two ranked contender, O’Malley.

Recently separating himself as the most prolific bantamweight champion in the history of the promotion back in May, Sterling headlined UFC 288 in Newark, New Jersey, defeating the former flyweight and bantamweight kingpin, Henry Cejudo in a close, split decision win.

Prior to his split judging win over Los Angeles native, Cejudo earlier this year, Sterling managed to turn in his second successful title defense in a dominant second round ground strikes TKO win over former champion, T.J. Dillashaw at UFC 280 last October – which followed a rematch title unification and retention win against rival, Petr Yan.

As for O’Malley, the surging bantamweight contender enters next weekend’s premiere title challenge off the back of a close, split decision win of his own over former champion and Dudinka native, Yan.

“Stop being an idiot. BRO! I’m gonna jump the f**k out of the ring,” Garry said.

“Come on, it’s a rib, Layla [Garry’s wife] make him fight” Curtis responded.

“You’re too tough for your own good. You’re fighting soon,” Garry replied.

“I got six weeks,” Curtis said attempting to reason, “Ian buddy come on, finish the round”.

“You’re going to come in the next one. Trust me,” said Garry. This is where you being smart is going to get you to the f*****g top five, the belt, all of that shit. You don’t need to be tough here.”

Sandhagen, the current number four ranked bantamweight contender, makes his Octagon return this weekend at UFC Nashville – taking on short-notice replacement, Rob Font, after an initial scheduled clash against the streaking, Umar Nurmagomedov fell to the wayside.

Sidelined since April, Eliot Marshall trainee, Sandhagen most recently turned in a one-sided split decision win over common-foe, Marlon Vera at UFC Fight Night San Antonio, which followed a prior fourth round doctor’s stoppage win over Song Yadong in another headlined last year.

Cory Sandhagen explains his differences with Sean O’Malley

Sharing his thoughts on recent comments made in a bid to advise fighters from O’Malley, Sandhagen admitted that he could not “connect” with some of the thought processes of the title chaser.

“There are things about Sean O’Malley that I think are just like, super lame,” Cory Sandhagen told Shakiel Mahjouri during a recent interview. “Talking about things like, ‘You fight the worst guy for the most amount of money.’ Everything being like, business decisions. It’s like, I can’t connect with that type of thinking at all. To me, those are ways of thinking that are just weak and they’re ways of thinking that are gonna trend into ruining the sport a little bit, in my opinion.”

“You should want to fight the best guy,” Cory Sandhagen explained. “If you’re here to be the actual world champion, that’s what we’re doing. I don’t see this as a business really… I make good money now, I’m good. The greediness and the business decisions things that happen in a lot of these ways of thinking are, to me, lame. I don’t think that passing on the message that you should fight the worst guy for the most amount of money – that is just such a weak way of thinking.” (Transcribed by MMA News)
