Sun Dec 08 03:51:33 UTC 2024: ## Undefeated Evloev Eyes Title Shot After Clash with Sterling at UFC 310
**Las Vegas, NV** – Undefeated featherweight contender Movsar Evloev (18-0) is set to face his toughest test yet at UFC 310 this Saturday, December 7th, when he battles former bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling. The fight, taking place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, will be a crucial step in Evloev’s quest for a featherweight title shot.
Evloev, who trains at American Top Team, has steadily climbed the featherweight ranks since moving up from bantamweight upon joining the UFC. He sees this fight as an opportunity to prove his title credentials. While respecting Sterling’s accomplishments, Evloev believes a victory would solidify his position as the next challenger for champion Ilia Topuria. He even went so far as to call himself Topuria’s “worst nightmare.”
“He was the champion of another division, not mine,” Evloev stated. “In my division, the champion is here. We’ll see. If we see it (as being) about sport and competition, everybody knows that I am the next contender.”
Sterling, making his second appearance at featherweight, presents a significant challenge. However, Evloev, known for his quiet confidence, prefers to let his fighting do the talking. He anticipates a compelling matchup and is confident in his ability to handle Sterling’s skillset. A win would not only extend his undefeated record to 19-0 but also boost his claim to a title fight in 2025. UFC 310 airs live on PPV, with the main card starting at 10 pm ET/7 pm PT.
