Jack Hermansson had a creative response to his split decision loss to Sean Strickland at UFC Vegas 47 this past Saturday night.
Hermansson tried to close the distance and get Strickland to the ground, but his efforts were thwarted by an effective jab and sound defense. The ‘Joker’ decided to push the pace in the fourth and fifth rounds, moving forward and going for takedowns against ’Tarzan’ until the horn signifying the end of the fight sounded. That final push appeared to have swayed the opinion of one judge who scored the fight for Hermansson, but it was Strickland who ultimately left the Octagon with a split decision win.
