Former undisputed middleweight titleholder, Sean Strickland has claimed his admitted “daddy issues” are weak sauce when it comes to the “hardness” instilled in former opponent-turned-training partner, Alex Pereira ahead of UFC 307 — picking the Brazilian to topple Khalil Rountree at UFC 307.
Strickland, who retains the number one rank at the middleweight limit, most recently turned in an impressive split decision win over former title challenger, Paulo Costa in the co-main event of UFC 302 back in May, setting him up for a title rematch with the incumbent, Dricus du Plessis in the early goings of next year.
