Sean Strickland is poised to defend his middleweight title against Dricus Du Plessis on January 20th. The anticipation has been building since last month, and the showdown is just around the corner. However, Strickland’s recent behavior, just days before the bout, doesn’t sit well with the fans of the sport.

Recently, a video surfaced featuring Sean Strickland participating in something extreme alongside Nina Marie Daniele, resulting in a severe ͏injury. Additionally, another ͏video has emerged showing him getting injured during a sparring session. These incidents have led fans ͏to believe that Strickland͏ is doing these willingly and may not be ready for this fight.

Fans react to Sean Strickland’s sparring video

Sean Strickland was in a video of him after a sparring session and we can witness that he was injured from the fight. Strickland in the video indicated that he might be having a bad day. “You know, a lot of times I’m the fucking hammer, but there are some days I’m the nail. Goddamn, I love my job.” Strickland’s reckless nature was taken very heavily by the fans who accused him of doing these things with the intent of avoiding the fight.

Some of the comments by the fans are as follows:

Fans assert that Strickland has been reckless in his approach towards the match. They claim that Charles Oliveira also had to pull out of his bout against Islam Makhachev due to injury and “Tarzan” should stay wary about these things. Strickland recently also engaged in recklessly launching fireworks at each other with his buddies, all while being shirtless. On top of all this, “Tarzan” now has another opponent to watch out for.

Khamzat Chimaev warns Strickland of consequences

During a recent media conversation, Khamzat Chimaev made it͏ clear that Stricklan͏d shou͏ld tread carefully, as he’s on the verge of pursuing the middleweight title. ‘Borz’s absence from the octagon was mainly due ͏to his injury and skin infection but seems like ͏the Chechen has recovered from it.

“[Sean Strickland] has to be afraid. I’m coming for him. If he wins against [Dricus du Plessis], for sure, we’re going to fight, 100 percent should be. They promised me that fight. Now we’re going to wait [to see] who is winning that fight and take the belt.” said Khamzat Chimaev.

Chimaev is looking at the middleweight division like a hotcake and his return has the potential to reshape the fate of the division. Who do you think will be holding the middleweight belt at the end of the year?
