UFC bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling talked about why he often responds to criticism against him on his social media accounts.
I don't care what people say. But I do care about defending my freedom and being able to say they're wrong. So you can say that to me, but I have the freedom and the luxury to respond to you. I do my best to entertain these guys, even though I could just leave it be and walk away. That's it.
