‘Why Do You Punch So Hard?’- Sean Strickland Rejoins Alex Pereira While His UFC Return Remains Unofficial
Alex Pereira and Sean Strickland
Remember when Alex Pereira knocked out Sean Strickland back in 2022? Well, water under the bridge now, as these two have become quite the training buddies since then. The unlikely duo is making waves in the UFC community with their recent sparring session.
Recently, Strickland took to social media to share a snapshot of their latest sparring session. The former middleweight champ couldn’t help but share a humorous jab at his hard-hitting friend.
“@alexpoatanpereira why do you punch so hard?! We gotta get a scientific study on this man’s power.. Great seeing you man!” stated Strickland via Instagram.
This reunion comes at an interesting time for both fighters. Strickland is fresh off a victory over Paulo Costa at UFC 302. He’s currently playing the waiting game, eyeing the winner of Du Plessis vs. Adesanya. He has no fight in view, as nothing has been confirmed. There were rumors that he would fight Robert Whittaker in a title eliminator bout, but again, nothing is confirmed.
Meanwhile, Pereira is riding high after his knockout win over Jiri Prochazka at UFC 303. The light heavyweight champ is gearing up for his next title defense, possibly against Magomed Ankalaev at UFC 309. It’s heartwarming to see these two bruisers form a bond. Who says you can’t be friends with the guy who knocked you out? Not in the UFC, apparently!
Joe Rogan Gives His Thoughts On Sean Strickland Sparring Alex Pereira vs. Him Sparring Sneako
Sparring sessions can be as intriguing as actual fights. Just ask Joe Rogan, the UFC’s resident commentator and podcast host. Recently, he shared his thoughts on Strickland’s contrasting sparring approaches with Pereira versus his controversial session with social media influencer Sneako.
Strickland, known for his outspoken nature, is not just fighting in the octagon; he’s sparring with champions and influencers alike. First up, Strickland’s session with Alex Pereira. Rogan noted that Strickland took a smart approach here. He kept it light, respecting Pereira’s knockout power.
But then there’s the Sneako situation. Rogan didn’t mince words about this one. He called out Strickland for beating up the smaller streamer, knowing that he couldn’t defend himself. With Pereira, it was a dance of mutual respect. With Sneako, well, let’s just say it was less of a dance and more of a demolition.
Rogan’s comments highlighted the unwritten rules of sparring in MMA. There’s an understanding, a code of conduct if you will. And apparently, Strickland missed that memo with Sneako.
