Former UFC featherweight champion Aleksander Volkanovski said that in a fight between former middleweight division titleholder Sean Strickland and Paulo Costa, he's leaning toward the latter's victory.
"Sean has been like Jared Cannonnier in several fights where he does everything he can to avoid taking serious damage, but lets the rounds get away from him. He doesn't punch himself, he only blocks his opponent's attacks.
Will we really see something similar in a fight against Costa? Paulo will try to shake Strickland and Shawn will have to be on his guard. I think he will again try to block his opponent's attacks, defend, defend and defend," said Wolkanowski on his YouTube channel.
Recall that Strickland and Costa will fight on June 1 as part of the UFC 302 event in Newark, USA.
