Movsar Evloev responds after Aljamain Sterling calls him a cheater: "You won’t feel a thing"

Aljamain Sterling and Movsar Evloev are arguing on social media ahead of their UFC 307 clash in October. Aljo accused Evloev of cheating and went on an X rant about it.

Here's the post:

In the video, Sterling said:

"I would love to get drug tested every single day. But I know my opponent [Evloev] would never do the same because I guarantee you my man is on something. But it's okay. I'm used to fighting guys who've been on gear. It's just one of those things. Like Nate Diaz said, 'They're all on steroids', right? So, may the better man win. I know I'm gonna be the cleaner man. I know I'm gonna get it done. I have no doubt in my mind. Even with you cheating. Mentally, it just shows that you're weak. So, it is what it is. Movsar I'm coming for that *ss and I can't wait October 5th it's going down UFC 307."

Evloev responded with a tweet, saying:

"Don’t be scared boy. ’I’ll make it quick. You won’t feel a thing."

Aljamain Sterling corrects controversial statement on slavery, admits to using the wrong word

Sterling jumped into the conversation about the rivalry between UFC middleweight champion Dricus du Plessis and Israel Adesanya. The tension between du Plessis and Adesanya stems from each man's African heritage.

Sterling provided his two cents, saying slavery was abolished in South Africa "roughly 28, 29, 30 years ago":

Fans bristled at Aljo's history lesson as slavery was abolished in South Africa in 1834, not three decades ago. Responding to the avid fan response, 'Funkmaster' corrected himself, saying:

"I used the wrong word. It was apartheid I was referring to. I’m just getting back from training and was very confused by your comment. So I double checked and saw I used the wrong word. In conversations with ppl from SA, the words are used interchangeably so that’s the confusion"
