Aljamain Sterling thinks UFC wants to book Henry Cejudo matchup in desperate attempt to dethrone him

Aljamain Sterling tied the record for most consecutive UFC bantamweight title defenses in a row with his victory against TJ Dillashaw. 'Funk Master' currently sits on two consecutive title defenses, and a third victory would see him make history. Since Sterling's victory over Dillashaw at UFC 280, rumors of a bout with former two-division champion Henry Cejudo have begun to emerge. 'Funk Master' appeared on The MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani to discuss what the future holds for the champion. Sterling pointed out that initially, his next opponent was meant to be the winner of Petr Yan vs. Sean O'Malley. Now the UFC are talking about a fight with 'Triple C' instead. In Sterling's opinion, the UFC are making a 'desperate' attempt to find someone that could beat him. "He's supposed to come back and get an immediate title shot after doing what? You know what I mean. Now I almost feel like, and I could be completely wrong, but I almost feel like they're looking for a last hope of someone who can take out Aljamain Sterling."
