Strickland hit his father in the head with a guitar to protect his mother.

Sean Strickland, the current UFC middleweight champion, told how he hit his father in the head with a guitar while defending his mother.

“One day they got into a big fight, I was in third or fourth grade. The father shouted: “I will kill you” and began to strangle the mother. I saw the guitar, took it and hit my father in the head. And then he called the police. My father was arrested, but my stupid mother rescued him from the police on bail...,” the fighter said.

Let us remind you that on January 21, Strickland will have a fight with Dricus du Plessis.
