UFC middleweight contender Sean Strickland spoke about his plan for the upcoming fight with the division champion Israel Adesanya.
“Of course, I plan to fight Adesanya with all my might, but I planned to do it with Pereira as well. The problem is that when you enter the octagon, you get a slight erection, and at that moment you understand that this is going to be a boxing fight. Maybe I'll try to fight like a well-rounded fighter, but I can't promise anything.
When you're fighting a guy who moves around relentlessly and dances on tiptoe, it's hard to know when to pass. We need to face each other and make war. You need to corner him, you understand? And for this you have to take a few blows and shed a little blood, ”quotes the words of the American MMA Junkie.
Recall that the fight between Adesanya and Strickland will headline the UFC 293 show, which will be held on September 9 in Sydney, Australia.
