Aljamain Sterling reacts after satirical MMA page posts fake video claiming to be 'Funk Master' getting beaten up by a delivery driver
Aljamain Sterling fell to Movsar Evloev at UFC 310. Despite his unanimous decision loss, the former UFC bantamweight champion did not disappoint fans in the 15-minute bout. He was lively and fought one of the finest fights of his career, displaying immense wrestling and striking. However, despite Sterling's best efforts, Evloev remained unbeaten.
'Funk Master' MMA recently responded to a humorous video on X of a man fighting with a Fed Ex Delivery agent on the streets. In the footage, the delivery executive appears to be outclassing his opponent in the street brawl. People nearby do not appear to intervene and are instead photographing the brawl.
The user who provided the video misidentified the man attacking the delivery agent as 'Funk Master.' UPFRONT MMA on X shared the same clip of the aforementioned incident, with the caption:
"UFC Star Aljamain Sterling Accosted By a Cracked Out Fed-Ex Delivery Driver! 🚚 Someone apparently didn't like the quality of Funk Harbor Rum!😱 #UFC #UFC310"
Sterling, on the other hand, made it obvious to his followers and netizens that he had no involvement in the aforementioned incident. Without taking offense, he wrote in a joking tone:
"Lmaoooo if anyone really thinks that me….wow, just wow."
