UFC 312 Live Blog: Dricus you Plessis vs. Sean Strickland 2

This is UFC 312 Live blog for the dricus du Plessis vs. Sean Strickland 2, Middleweight title Rematch this Saturday in Sydney.

A former KSW Welterweight champion, you Plessis (22-2) joined the UFC in 2020 and has not looked back. After winning his first six matches in the promotion, “Stillknocks” earned a crack by then-mediocre master Sean Strickland, making the belt via disputed split decision on UFC 297 in January 2024. You then defended his title with success with a fourth- Round submission of two-time master Israel Adesanya to cement herself as the top middleweight in the world.

Strickland (29-6) was also a race in much of his career, best known for his willingness to accept almost any fight on short notice. It all changed in 2023 when Strickland is unlikely to tighten three wins together, the last of which was a massive revolt over Israel Adesanya to demand the middleweight title and Cement Stricklands Plads as the match of the year. Then he fell the belt to Du Plessis in his first defense, and after winning a split decision over Paulo Costa, Strickland now has a chance to avenge this loss and become a two-time master.
