Why this card matters
Sterling's first certified autograph, from the 73-card Fighter Autographs checklist in 2015 Topps UFC Champions (28 October 2015). The base signature is unnumbered, with a Red parallel numbered /8 and a Platinum 1/1 above it; SportsCardsPro's checklist for the subset shows exactly those two Sterling entries. The same product carries a second, scarcer Sterling signature in Fighting's Future Autographs #FF-AS, numbered /25.
Identification
Missing a front scan. Contribute one.
- Card #FA-AST — the FA- prefix is the Fighter Autographs subset, AST are his initials
- Base version unnumbered; Red parallel serial numbered /8
- Distinct from Fighting's Future Autographs #FF-AS /25 and from Scarlet Signatures, which are separate 2015 Champions autograph subsets
- Given its own set slug because the FA- numbering runs separately from the 200-card base checklist
| Sterling's first autograph is the 2015 Topps UFC Chronicles #CA-AST. | Chronicles shipped 3 February 2016; the Champions FA-AST came out on 28 October 2015. |
Disputed
Whether the signature is on-card or on a sticker could not be established from any reachable source this research. Cardboard Connection gives the subset Red /8 and Platinum 1/1 parallels; SportsCardsPro's subset listing shows only the base and the Red for Sterling, so the Platinum is recorded as probable rather than confirmed for him specifically.
