DuPlessis vs Strickland is gonna be awesome.

[@sportsonwheelss]

yeah, can't wait to see pillow punches from Strickland and Duplessis slow-motion punches.

[@Drathrin]

@@sportsonwheelss challenge Strickland to spar then big man, he will fight literally anybody. talk your shit in person to him if hes so weak

[@sportsonwheelss]

LOL right. I'm no professional, but as a loud mouth so so fighter as he is, his best day was the only lucky win that he had against Adesanya@@Drathrin

[@agegarret]

​@sportsonwheelss you clearly are ignorant if you think that strickland's win against adesanya was luck. Sean fully and completely outclassed probably the best striker in the world for 5 full rounds. There was one round where izzy had minor success but he got shut down quick. Dricus' wrestling might be an issue for sean considering his stiff posture so the fight will be interesting.

Till is still one of my favorite fighters to watch. Looking forward to his boxing career.

[@Lemaforthewin]

well, he was a nice prospect, until Masvidal flattened him in London

[@sylvainlaurence1554]

Same here

[@Richard.Dawson]

The KO from Masvidal ruined his career. He became a scared fighter after that.

[@justinklenk]

Yeah - I always categorized him with Dan Hooker, in that regard (and not even as high as Hooker, honestly) - it was some of the easier hype to see through, regardless of before/after him fighting Masvidal.

the worst is Till was beating him up good on the feet when DDP was gassed out.I think Strickland will kill him if it goes past the 3rd.

[@Steven-jd3ey]

@@alpe6228 in the second maybe.. Dricus was piecing him up in the third. He has solid cardio.

[@ÑEZ0688]

Till was always undersized at 185. If Khamzat and Shavkhat were able to make 170...so could Till. He looked soft AF here at 185. Darren was probably outweighed by 15-20 lbs here.

[@dylanb2086]

Agreed. Till is lazy as fuck. Skinny fat - does not train hard. No sympathy for him. He's never been lean - I don't think 170 was a crazy hard weight for him to make at all.

[@fredflintstone6729]

People still not realizing how strong Du Plessis is for the division..

[@DyingBreed8]

i dont know about that...seems we notice it. that's why he gasses.

[@leep_uq]

He will have no chance against Strickland with this kind of cardio

[@fredflintstone6729]

@@leep_uq he will take strickland to the ground, something izzy didn't think he could or should do.. If you think Du Plessis is going to stand in front of him you're dreaming.

[@fredflintstone6729]

@@DyingBreed8 lets face it, since izzy got dethroned it's a bit of a boring division up the top.. Strickland is a place holder and Du Plessis will be the next place holder for that belt.

@@fredflintstone6729 unless DDP gasses and it's more likely imho. It looks like anyone lasting 2 rounds with ddp should be able to takeover after that as long as they're elite somewhere.

[@krissullivan593]

I'm thinking Strickland will smoke Dricus. The only reason Dricus won this fight is because Darren is so lacking in the wrestling department. He could have been really good I'd be would have worked on his takedown defense more and would have taken a slower road to the top. They rushed him when he wasn't ready for the big lights and pressure.

[@Sawdust-f4p]

😅😅

[@sentientdogma1206]

Keep thinking that buddy, then your woke little abuse victim is gonna get completely dominated by Dricus and you’ll try and cope even harder LMFAOOOOOO 🤣

[@craigadair128]

I think so too Strickland can go forever and Dricus was totally spent after round 1 in this fight.

[@schiebertv5284]

Yo también creo que sí porque sean si sabe algo de lucha no es como till

[@NdadeMbhele]

I think with DDP vs Strickland the decider will be STYLE vs STYLE! It would be fun to watch!

[@Sir-Complains-a-Lot]

Holy moly that first round!

[@richardclatworthy6381]

Till looked like he didn’t want to be there in round 1. DDP looks like he has bad cardio, could be a big issue when he fights Strickland

[@John_Connor556]

Till was a good fighter & mad respect he beat some quality guys, but was never the same after Masvidal KO'd him in England.

[@donwhite1243]

Till should train with cormier. Dude was saying all the right things and possibly could have trained him in defending takedowns. DDP is still dangerous even gassed. Bravo DDP

By watching this fight you can tell Whittaker wasnt himself in that fight . If duplessis fights like this against strickland he wont stand a chance

[@krissullivan593]

Till gives up so easy. It seemed as though he didn't want to be there at the end of the third round when he was shaking his cup. Then, he tapped immediately after Dricus started the strangle. Worse than when Gane fought Jon Jones.

[@underdog209]

They say that every fight. The guy is 20-2, 6-0 in the UFC with 5 finishes. He’s been champion in every promotion he fought in. He doesn’t fight pretty but he is a tough mfker and dangerous, if Strickland approaches this fight with that mentality he is getting finished.
