Let us remember that last weekend at UFC 293, Strickland defeated Adesanya by unanimous decision and became the champion in the promotion’s middle division.
“Personally, I don’t agree with this opinion. When I defeated Adesanya, I agreed to a rematch because I was losing that fight and managed to knock him out only in the last round. So it was a completely different situation. Now Sean has exceeded all expectations.
For many people who did not believe in him, now is the time to believe. I think Strickland should move on and give other fighters a chance,” Pereira said in a release on his YouTube channel.
