UFC Vegas 116 full fight: Aljamain Sterling dominates Brian Ortega

Yahoo Sports

Watch Aljamain Sterling dominate Brian Ortega in a unanimous decision ahead of his return at Saturday's UFC Vegas 116.

Aljamain Sterling's last win was a big one. Back in August at UFC Fight Night 257 in Shanghai, China, the former UFC bantamweight champion added long-time featherweight contender and former title challenger Brian Ortega to his resume. The "Funkmaster" did so by dominating Ortega in a unanimous decision that read 50-45 on all judges' scorecards.

It was an impressive victory. You can watch Sterling's dominant win over Ortega in the video above. Sterling (25-5 MMA, 17-5 UFC) returns to the octagon this Saturday in the main event of UFC Fight Night 274 (Paramount+) – which takes place at Meta APEX in Las Vegas.

He takes on rising contender Youssef Zalal (18-5-1 MMA, 8-3-1 UFC) in a five-round featherweight bout. This article originally appeared on MMA Junkie: UFC Vegas 116 full fight: Aljamain Sterling dominates Brian Ortega
