Blaine Henry delivers an illustrated, frame-by-frame analysis of the keys to victory for Aljamain Sterling and Sean O'Malley in the headliner of UFC 292 on Saturday in Boston.
Against Rodriguez, an opponent who comes in with blistering kicks similarly to Sterling, Volkanovski throws a step up low kick to the inside of Rodriguez’ leg. As this lands, we see that Rodriguez is thinking the right thing and will fire a cross. The problem is, Volkanovski being as good as he is threw the step up low kick to the inside despite it being the less superior kick. Throwing it allows him to step back from orthodox into southpaw, notice his right hand is the lead now.
, another wrestler. Though the fight will be hard for O’Malley, a path to victory is clear with safe footwork, a smart striking approach, and discipline to not give his back up.Everyone knows that Sterling will have the size advantage going into UFC 292. O’Malley is a fast and hard striker and if Sterling gets reckless like he has in the past, could see himself moving to 145 coming off of a loss, but Sterling has fought some of the best in the division.
Instead, Sterling likes to draw these counters out as he advances and ducks under for a takedown. He did this to great effect against Yan in the rematch. Sterling would get to the legs enough to get the takedown at crucial times.Yan was happy to be pushed back and look for the counter. As Sterling advanced, Yan would dip low and telegraph the left hand. As Yan overextends on the punch, Sterling ducks under and gets to the single leg takedown.
