Aljamain Sterling
Lerone Murphy
Conversation History
“I agree with Lerone. Even if I didn't get it, him or Movsar for sure should've been the guy. Movsar got passed over by Lopes once, and he gets another opportunity for gold lol. Fair play to Lopes, but you can see why guys start to lose love for the game. Cold world”
– via X, reacting to Murphy's statement and questioning Diego Lopes getting an immediate title rematch.
“LOL. I’m not fighting this year”
– clears UFC 323 rumors after Aljamain Sterling matchup claim.
“I like Murphy. He has an interesting style to problem solve. But to say my name doesn’t belong in the mix is showing his insecurities. I’ve never turned down a fight. We will see what the bosses and Volk wants to do”
“You beat a Bellator guy brodie, ran circles from Emmett, and have 2 finishes your whole UFC career.I’m a 3x defending former champ, beat a 2x title challenger, almost 3x the UFC wins than you. Brother, I am next. My name makes perfect sense and I can show you a miracle.”
“pico would beat you though, 100% and you know it. And I’ve had 3 finishes in the UFC. Bro I’m not discrediting your resume bantamweight but you won’t touch gold at featherweight.”
“How is aljos name even in the mix. I’m confused. Bros 2”
– 2 in his last 4 fights. He was a good bantamweight but an average featherweight. ONLY 1 name makes sense and that is LERONE MURPHY
