American mixed martial arts fighter Sean Strickland expressed confidence that without difficult life challenges he would not have been able to reach the UFC championship title.
“Thank God that my father abused me as a child. All these traumas and repressed memories... They brought me to where I am now. Dad, you're one hell of a dude. All these years of abuse. You have made me the man I am.
If it weren't for the UFC, I would most likely be in jail for murder or other violence. Long live the UFC! You saved someone’s life. And mine, by the way, too,” MMA News quotes Strickland.
Let us remember that on September 10 at UFC 293, Strickland defeated Adesanya by unanimous decision and became the new UFC middleweight champion.
