For many MMA fighters and fans the world over, Sean Strickland‘s performance at UFC 312 this weekend left much to be desired, including Demetrious Johnson. Just this past Saturday night, Strickland went into Sydney, Australia to try for the UFC Middleweight Championship in the UFC 312 main event.
In short, this fight was one-way traffic for titleholder Dricus Du Plessis, who easily met the challenge that Strickland presented to him, scoring a unanimous decision victory, (50-45, 50-45, 49-46) after 25 minutes of action to defend the belt. During the aftermath of the fight, Demetrious Johnson, who won championships in both the UFC and ONE Championship, was unsurprised by Strickland’s efforts in the famed Octagon.
