Video – Shirtless Sean Strickland Gets Into ‘Roman Candle Battle’ with Nina Drama on New Year’s

Three weeks out from his first UFC middleweight title defense on January 20, Sean Strickland spent his New Year’s by engaging in a fireworks fight with MMA interviewer Nina Drama.

Drama, who has become good friends with Strickland over the last year, shared an uncensored video of multiple people engaged in a ‘Roman Candle Battle.’ The ex-model was smart enough to cover her head with a helmet, but Strickland chose to take off his shirt while fireworks were launched directly at him.
