Sean Sharaf calls out UFC over Gable Steveson promotion

Sharaf questions the
Ultimate Fighting Championship's selective promotion of
fighters.
Sharaf (4-2) is scheduled to fight Gable
Steveson (4-0) at UFC
331 on Sept. 19 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Steveson
recently did a collaboration on Instagram with UFC content creator
Nina Marie Daniele, aka Nina Drama, drawing the ire of his upcoming
foe.
Sean Sharaf questions UFC treatment ahead of Gable Steveson
fight
Sharaf questioned the UFC over the influencer's repeated
collaborations with Steveson. Sharaf, an ex-Marine, wonders if he's
unworthy of promotion and slammed the organization for allegedly
pushing Steveson, who has been accused of sexual assault.
“This is like the 4th collab they do with him, what's up with that
UFC guess Marines aren't worthy of interviews just r**ists,†Sharaf
wrote in the comments section of Nina Drama's video.
Steveson and his teammate Dylan Martinez were arrested on charges
of sexual assault in 2019. However, they were subsequently released
with no criminal charges filed due to lack of evidence. Steveson
went on to win gold in freestyle wrestling at the Tokyo
Olympics.
He transitioned to MMA last year and made it to the UFC with three
first-round finishes. Steveson stopped Elisha
Ellison in the first round of his UFC debut this past July.
Meanwhile, Sharaf came to the UFC as an undefeated prospect with
four first-round finishes, but has suffered knockout losses in both
his UFC fights so far.

Tsarukyan is open to fighting Alexander
Volkanovski, provided
Ultimate Fighting Championship gold is at stake.
Volkanovski (29-4) defended the featherweight title with a
technical knockout victory over Movsar
Evloev at
UFC 333 in Abu Dhabi before expressing interest in returning to
lightweight. With champion Justin
Gaethje uncertain about his future, Volkanovski offered to face
Tsarukyan (24-3) for the vacant title if Gaethje retires.
Arman Tsarukyan reminds Alexander Volkanovski how Islam
Makhachev rematch ended
Tsarukyan said the championship matters more to him than the
opponent.
“I'm ready for everyone,†Tsarukyan told Yavuz Saynomo. “For me, it
doesn't matter who I'm gonna fight; I just want to fight for the
title.â€
Volkanovski has expressed confidence that he can counter
Tsarukyan's wrestling and avoid being held down. Tsarukyan
responded by recalling the Australian's knockout loss to Islam
Makhachev.
“He said Islam Makhachev cannot knock him out, too,†Tsarukyan
added.
Volkanovski has twice challenged Makhachev for the lightweight
championship. He lost their first meeting by unanimous decision
before Makhachev finished their rematch with a head kick and
follow-up punches.
Tsarukyan remains confident that his next bout will be for the
title. If Gaethje retires, “The Batman†expects to compete for the
vacant belt.
“I have a title fight next,†Tsarukyan reiterated. “Either Justin
Gaethje. If he is retired, someone else.â€
