Sean Strickland had a lot on his mind following UFC Vegas 90.
In the main event, the former UFC Middleweight Champion saw his longtime teammate Chris Curtis fight former foe of both men, Brendan Allen. The top contenders went to war over five rounds with Allen slipping by with a split decision win.
Not everybody had ‘All In’ on their scorecards, including Strickland. Nevertheless, Strickland liked what he saw from Curtis, who stepped on a few weeks’ notice to take on the #6 fighter in the world… although, he initially advised the ‘off the couch’ Curtis against going for the gamble.
