UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland spoke about the fight with Dricus Du Plessis, which will take place on January 20th in the main event of UFC 297 in Toronto, Canada.

“Drikus is so unusual that it makes him a tough fighter. However, I am a million times better and train with fighters who fought him. So I understand what he is all about. But he has a weird style, so it just won’t happen. This will be a real war. The fight with Du Plessis is more difficult than against Chimaev,” MMA Fighting quotes Strickland as saying.
