Sean Strickland wants a rematch against Alex Pereira.
The UFC middleweight contender had a six-fight win streak snapped by Pereira, who added Strickland to his resume with a first-round KO at UFC 276 this past July. In the aftermath, ‘Tarzan’ was criticized for using a ‘stand-and-trade’ strategy for a former two-division GLORY kickboxing champion.
Despite the disastrous result, Strickland told Mike Bohn of MMA Junkie recently that he would use the exact same strategy against Pereira, should he get a rematch at some point.
“He’s a f—king big motherf—king Brazilian who hits like f—king dynamite,” said Strickland.
