She could take 45 punches in 25 minutes. Rankings? I’ll sound so negative again now but look at the lhw rankings. I think the 3rd ranked guy has had 2 fights in the ufc. I wish Sean the best, but if we’re on the what has impressed me, it’s not much. On the other hand, Uriah did impress once upon a time and Sean disposed of him easily.
Sean Strickland responds to Luke Rockhold: ‘I would probably take a misdemeanor’ just to smack you
With a UFC 268 fight in the works, Strickland took to Instagram to fire back at Rockhold after the former middleweight champ called him an absolute “nobody” and a “fucking idiot” with subpar fighting skills
“All these things might be true,” Strickland said in a selfie video. “But I’ll tell you one thing. Me and you might never fight. I don’t care about fighting in the cage for ego reasons. I like to get paid at something I enjoy. But I’ll tell you fucking one thing. You just can’t live in a radius of me and run your fucking mouth and not expect for me to hit you in the face.
“We don’t need to fight. That’s fine. But I’m going to run into you at RVCA. I’m going to see you in the parking lot, and I’m going to walk up to you and smack you in the fucking face. And you seem like the kind of pussy that runs his fucking mouth and gets hit and then calls the cops.
But you’re such a smug, cocky motherfucker … I would probably take a misdemeanor charge just to smack you and watch your fucking head bounce off the ground. So again, we don’t gotta fight. But don’t run your fucking mouth, because I’m going to see you again, and I’m going to smack you in the fucking face.”
I’m on board with Tex and MMA regarding Sean’s boxing. Sean is definitely not a hard puncher but his jab is on point, he has a knack for staying out of range and he constantly pressures.
looking back at the fight against Uriah, Sean let loose a beautiful volley of punches but then went for a takedown letting Hall off the hook.
If he can let those shots go he may stun and finish Luke. IMO, this fight is 50 50.
I agree. He’s fun to watch so I hope he’s worked on that chink in his armor. Arlovski looked like his fighting career was over but he made adjustments and improvements to avoid getting punched and he’s done it real well so it is doable.
