Sean Strickland sends message to upcoming opponent Dricus du Plessis asking him to make a pact
Sean Strickland and Dricus du Plessis squared off at UFC 297 in their first showdown. 'Stillknocks' won the fight after a tough five rounds and became the new UFC middleweight champion.
As the duo is scheduled to take on each other in a rematch at UFC 312, the former UFC middleweight champion has sent a message to the reigning title holder.
Asking du Plessis to make a pact with him, the 33-year-old American fighter wants the defending champion to rely on his striking instead of his wrestling in their upcoming UFC middleweight title bout.
While Strickland mainly relies on his game on the feet, the 31-year-old South African is known to have a good ground game besides a reasonable stand-up. Their previous bout was close and many, including Dana White, disputed the official decision and felt that Strickland had done the job.
Strickland said in the video:
"Listen Dutchman, I'm gonna need you to be a f*cking man and I'm gonna need you to stand up and not go to your knees and we're gonna need to f**king strike like men. I know you like to wrestle and you like to choke people out and do some gay s*it due but I'll make a pact with you, you make a pact with me, that we f**king stand up like men and we settle this s*it like men."
