Sean Strickland, who bears a professional record of 28 wins and 5 losses in MMA (15 wins and 5 losses in UFC), recently opened up about some of his disturbing childhood experiences in a heartfelt conversation. Strickland’s emotional disclosure, coupled with his contentious remarks about his fellow fighters, has sparked a mild rebuke from du Plessis.
On the other hand, du Plessis, who has an impressive record of 20 wins and 2 losses in MMA (6 wins and no losses in UFC), commented during his interview with MMA On Point, “Watching a grown man cry in an interview…it’s not really my watch material…But it is what it is. I’m glad he cried and he got it out. I hope that’s the end of that.”
Du Plessis went on to analyze Strickland’s mindset and fighting style, voicing his admiration for Strickland as a fighter but criticizing his duplicity. “He always has, and he’s an extraordinary fighter. I hold him in high regard as a fighter. I think he’s exceptional. Do I believe he’s a hypocrite? Absolutely,” he commented.
Du Plessis also expressed his disapproval of Strickland’s proclivity to inflict the same trauma he endured, a behavior du Plessis strongly opposes. “Childhood trauma is something you can’t control, but if you know the pain of being on the receiving end of such trauma, don’t inflict it on others,” he declared.
