Jared Cannonier came in support of Sean Strickland amid criticism for latter's UFC 312 loss

Sean Strickland ran it back with Dricus du Plessis at UFC 312 for the middleweight championship in a rematch. The fight went through five rounds and du Plessis earned a comfortable unanimous decision win to continue his reign.

Strickland's performance evoked heavy criticism from fans and fight experts alike. When the reporters asked Jared Cannonier for his opinion on Strickland's performance at the media day of UFC Vegas 102, he supported 'Tarzan' and praised him for fighting through the five rounds despite suffering a broken nose in the fight.

"I thought he went in there and competed for five rounds in a world-title match, and came up on the short end of the stick with a broken nose. So, people wanted him to sustain more damage than that. We live in a sadistic world where people want to see other people go through some sort of pain and take pleasure out of that.”
