3 years agoIn a chance to recapture his lost title, Petr Yan was unable to recover at UFC 273 on Saturday, dropping a close split decision to Aljamain Sterling in the night's co-main event. Yan did out-strike Sterling in 25 minutes of action by tallying 63 significant strikes (139 total strikes), and he stuffed 20 of Sterling's 22 takedown tries. Yan has shown the ability to handle the rest of the division, so he could easily win any future bouts. Wanting the title back, we may see a revamped Yan the next time he gets a crack at the title.--Matt Bricker - RotoBaller
