Sean Strickland explains why he picked Abus Magomedov above other top-ten contenders

Sean Strickland is gearing up for an exciting showdown against the rising talent Abus Magomedov, scheduled to headline a five-round main event on July 1. While Magomedov may be relatively new to the UFC and unranked in the division, he is poised to step into the octagon for the second time, ready to test his mettle against the experienced and formidable Strickland.

'Tarzan' shared his decision to face an unranked opponent, highlighting his determination to avoid a period of inactivity. Despite being overlooked by the top-10 fighters in his weight class, who opted not to accept the challenge, Strickland remained undeterred in his pursuit of competition.

During an interview with Helen Yee, the No.7-ranked middleweight remarked:

"The UFC came to me and they said, 'Sean we asked a couple top 10 guys they said no'... so they said 'we're going to be benching you for like six to eight months until somebody opens up or you fight this guy'. I said UFC, that's fu*ked up but I like to fight. I like to make money so I said yes and that's how here we are."
