Evloev returned to the Octagon after almost a year, having last competed at UFC 297 against Arnold Allen. In that three-round bout, he secured a unanimous decision victory. With his win over Sterling, he extended his professional record to 19-0.
Movsar Evloev says he will continue winning until the UFC grants him a title shot
Movsar Evloev extended his undefeated MMA record to 19-0 following his victory over Aljamain Sterling. His impressive resume includes wins over notable fighters like Diego Lopes and Dan Ige.
Given his record, a title shot is certainly warranted. Evloev, however, stated that if the promotion decides to go in another direction, he will accept another fight and keep winning until the UFC has no choice but to grant his shot at gold. Speaking at the UFC 310 post-fight press conference, he said:
“If (Dana White is) thinking I don’t deserve the title, just give me another fight. I will keep winning, even to 100-0. And then maybe they will think about a title shot for me. I think I deserve the title shot. If not, just give me another fighter. I’m not going to wait for another year to fight again. Just two months maybe and I am ready to fight.”
