Kevin Vallejos addresses Aljamain Sterling’s criticism of Dan
\nMiragliotta<\/h2>\n

Sterling said Miragliotta\u2019s intervention left him so angry that he
\nconsidered entering the Octagon.<\/p>\n

\u201cI felt like I was close to storming that cage,\u201d Sterling said on
\nhis YouTube channel. \u201cI was angry, I was fuming. Even this morning,
\nI was daydreaming: what possessed this man to do such a thing?
\nCriminal.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vallejos (18-1) jokingly claimed that UFC CEO Dana
\nWhite<\/a> had already told him Miragliotta would referee his bout
\nagainst Sterling (26-5), whose grappling includes strong back
\ncontrol.<\/p>\n

\u201cDana told me that Dan Miragliotta will be my referee,\u201d Vallejos
\nwrote in response to Sterling\u2019s criticism.<\/p>\n

Sterling is scheduled to face Vallejos in the co-main event of
