I watched Dricus become 2 division EFC africa champ, ksw champ, we here in south africa knew what he was capable of. Maybe doesnt look polished, but he wins
Excitement is building as the fight coincides with my birthday on February 9th! Dricus, you are the champion, and I trust you're putting in the hard work at the gym right now. While I don't usually gamble, this matchup feels like a guaranteed win. With Dricus facing Strickland, it's not just a bet-it's a chance to double my investment! Proudly South African and honored to share this journey with fellow Africans like Dricus. Let’s go!
For those who don't understand why many are still saying sean lost its mainly because he was bleeding, he was taken down eight times in the first and he was only jabbing and point fighting without even trying to get a knockout or submission the whole five rounds. Watch how DDP and Izzy fought and how DDP and Sean fought. Playing it safe, thinking he can outlast or out gas Dricus by round four was a failed game plan even his coach was telling him to change it up in round five. Had he fought like that since round one maybe he could have won, had he stopped point fighting. While it helps you win matches, it puts your wins to doubt as Dricus Du Plessis entire fight record he doesn't depend on the judges this was the only time this happened and worse part he wasn't on the backfoot the entire match no signs of being knocked down or takendown.
@@ventnorgoosen4239 You also don't win many fights when you get outstruck by over 60 punches...including taking 50 more significant strikes. I agree DDP won the fight, but anyone who thinks it was easy or a clear cut victory is delusional. It was a close fight and I think the 2nd one will be too.
I thought Strickland won the first fight vs DP, and Strickland thought he won too. He didn't technically lose the belt (if a fight is 50/50 it usually goes to the defending champ), thats why hes pissed.
@@thomasdonnelly4770 Oh, yea, the two American guys who clearly don't like DDP and don't fight think the American fighter won. Cormier, Bisping, Cruz, Cejudo, Johnson, Volkanovski, Adessanya, Whittaker and Chael Sonnen all thought DDP won. You'd think those guys would know a thing or two about champion fights.
Great point. I’ve been rooting for dricus. But to be honest I didn’t expect him to beat Whitaker, Strickland, or Adesanye. Such a weird style. But he makes it really work.
@@toastywhiteboy7822 should be a heck of a fight. I have no clue who’d win that fight. I could see du plessis chin khamzat. Could also see khamzat submitting DDP. I’d be rooting for DDP
@@jaredtaylor326 Ok maybe implying that DDP won the first fight was the wrong move, tbh im kinda bouncing between DDP and Sean winning that fight, but I think DDP has leveled up his grappling more since then, so I’m leaning towards DDP winning the rematch.
Some Sean Strickland fans are deluded and the worst losers ever. Pathetic. Sick of hearing this. He lost because he just jabbed and went backwards. MMA fights dont get won this way, no matter how much you wanted him to win. Agree with other comment Sean screwed himself by fighting like this
Dricus is just a beast all around. Breaks fighter’s spiritually then in the cage. He’s just one of those dudes you hate because they’re good at everything 😂 bro can even sing
One thing to point out...DDP is getting better all the time while Strickland is staying att his comfort zone. DDP will want to make sure he finishes the fight..while Strickland focuses on to getting a win.. Ime giving DDP this fight by tko or choke... Dont think a KO is on the cards..neather goes to the judges... Nah just joking... It will be a KO FOR SURE😂
Uncle Chaels best take in months. When Dricus fought for the belt, I had no idea who he was. Now I think he's in the running for most entertaining fighter in and out of the ring.
Insightful and well researched.I like them both, I think they actually like eachother but fighters will be fighters.This fight gonna be a Griffen/ Bonnar type fight and Im excited. UFC gonna make bank fans gonna get a battle. Respect Chael, Respect Sean and DDP.
Really goes to show how influential the Contender Series is as a marketing vehicle for a fighter's career. It's both a blessing and a curse because a lot of guys get unfairly scrutinized coming off the show when they've got all that hype behind them.
@@ventnorgoosen4239they both moved forward that last fight, dicuss does those crazy over hand swing combos while barrelling forward. Sean wasn't really backing up but who in there right mind would just stand there when that crazy white african man is swinging full power with no regard for his own safety
@ventnorgoosen4239 ifs dont work, you dont think Seans is training too? Dricus needs to bring more than he did last time because most people dont believe he won the first one.
One thing you can be sure of, if you're reacting to something Chael says, he'll be nineteen moves ahead of you in a game of three dimensional chess while you've just dropped the first counter in Connect4. And yeah, I went and looked at DJ vs Cruz. And yeah I want to see the rematch.
Dricus always throws a big looping right hand to the head and then proceeds to dip his head to the left...he does something similar when he throws a high kick....this time Strickland will catch him on the chin.
Good observation - an intelligent fighter is going to figure DP out. He’s made his thing work so far for sure. People dismiss Strickland because of his idiotic personality, but I believe he’s a super intelligent fighter, and will continue to improve.
Here's one for you, when strickland gets his opponent tired, and gains advantage, he throws these hooks that have no rotation, not an ounce of weight behind them, and look like he is trying to dig a hole behind himself. It's funny because he is very reserved and calculated till he sees an advantage and he just loses his mind and starts windmilling these hooks. You will never see him throw a hook until he thinks he has won. When he knocked adesanya down, he had a comical look of relief on his face getting up when he saw that this is what strickland decided to do when he stunned him
well if DDP is a squeaky wheel, lets see what happens. Maybe he gets gifted again. I like both fighters, DDP is from my country and I will back him again. Alot have always under estimated him and he has always proved the haters wrong. Would be amazing he puts strickland in a koeksister... lol.
@keshawnwilson9639 I know, DDP won 234. Crybaby Somehow was give round 5 because of the last 30s of the round when he got desperate as he knew he had lost the fight.
Stop it Strickland got his ass beat and everyone saw😂 he threw a jab and occasional right hand the whole fight, Dricus face was marked up but people forget Sean's face was bloodied up bad also, Dricus did more
@@mrmiyagi7388 not true. Watch the fight again. I don’t even think Dana is a big fan of SS and he thought he won the fight definitively. Again, if you dethrone the champ, the wind should be decisive in my opinion. But obviously that does not matter just people having differing opinions. I understand the South African bias only natural.
Sean Sreickland won the last fight against Dricus. Watched the fight with no commentary and Sean won in my opinion. And I think he will make a statement this time.
Who? Chael? 😂 I've seen him in public multiple times. I'll just say this: every time you see him on camera, it's a persona. It's WWE. He's so different irl.
If the judges are against Strickland then why does he keeps letting the fight get to them? All he does is talk, jab and teep kick. When he says “To the death!” He means to the judges. Boring.
For the rematch DDP and Sean must not have it go to the judges DDP has proven he can defend the title against an on form Izzy using tactics over technique playing at Izzy's weaknesses and nullifying his striking skills. Dricus is not the best at stricking, he is not the best at submission, he doesn't fight a clean fight but what people fail to realize he uses his skills to be good enough to attack and defend against his technically better opponents with strength, brute force and awkwardness, the awkwardness throws them all off one second he is missing next he connects.
I agree I think this is a good fight for Tom before John Gives him a chance to prove him self against a good fighter with a good name if not a big ever name then Tom Come on Tom Good fight tho
Zero interest in Sean fighting for the belt and Suarez hasn’t fought since like 2022 and is fighting for a belt and no Volk, Rob or JDM. UFC 312 makes no sense.
It’s not the best fight that can be made for that title, but I am sure there is reason they made it and the reason probably has a lot to do with timing. Undefeated.
I think this was Dana White sticking to a public statement when he said Strickland deserves a rematch. Strickland fans should appreciate this act of kindness. Dana didn't have to do it. So after this and whatever happens fans have to accept the outcome and move on ( finally) Khamzat needs to have his title shot opportunity next. He's waited for months/years.
Strickland, a huge Game Changer!!! Izzy ran away fron Jon Jones. And Rivals Alex. When Gane n FRancis SPLiit? Who had FRancis?!! Sean Strictland taking the beating!!! Spar buddy. Yeah now.... Strickland changed izzy, ran away in tears. And drikuss, heated up. He changed after Alex teamup. Cannoniier jumped over strickland to izzy fight. Darns
Sean Strickland is completely deserving of the term elite fighter. He is a top shelf elite level UFC fighter. I just don't believe he wins, if he shows Dricus that same look. That same one dimensional Strickland boxing style wont get his hand raised against him. Dricus has been around , defended the belt against a tough ex champion and is savvy enough to fight not to lose. Which is how Izzy held on to his shit so long.
Chael it has too be recognized that it was @MMA GURU That helped blow up Dricus's popularity! The guru effect must be recognized the guru ARMY must be recognized in The hype
This isn't 2008 anymore. Weak Jon Fitch takedowns that don't go anywhere don't win fights. Meanwhile, Sean turned DDPs face into a butcher shop floor. Sean won that fight
He instantly lost he got his shot. Win by a sparrow fart or a lot you still lost. If the lakers lose in game 7 by 1 point they still lost. They don’t get another shot unless they beat the entire competition all next year. He cried, pissed, moaned and threatened to quit. The guy got a title shot ranked 6th when he hadn’t earned it yet. He wasn’t a no.1 contender. He fought Costa who everyone’s been beating not Khamzat who he turned down, rob Whittaker he turned down. The fact he is getting a second shot is a miracle and only because it was close and only because his massive fan base that exploded after the Izzy win are on their knees for Sean
ddp had 25 minutes to ko him and even with 6 take downs he couldn't come anywhere near close to submitting him in any way..but I hear ddp is "miraculously evolved as a fighter now", haha, it's strickland's fight to lose, be real the better game plan won last time, the stubborn stand and swing strickland lost, but even with ONLY that approach he likely only lost due to a fluke cut that hindered his eye sight at the start of the 4th, he probably wins that 4th if not cut and therefore wins the fight, that's how close it was fun fact, sean and khalil had the same cut colby had, just as bad, but colby's fight was stopped, anyway let's just hope the fight happens
Your dismissing 6 take downs . That's the problem. If Strickland doesn't use his full options like Dricus did, he (Dricus) could most likely sqweek another decision win. It's called mixed martials arts. Which ever one uses that effectively for 5 rounds wins. If not, we're getting a repeat of the first fight, with the same outcome
@@kev30631 A repeat of the first fight may not have the same outcome though. You can't rely on winning a split decision. Strickland outstruck DDP by 60 punches, including 50 more significant strikes. If DDP thinks he can sit back and take that assault again I think he's making a mistake. I don't think he will though, I think last fight he took Sean's best punch and was able to power through. This time I think he gets more aggressive and does more with his takedowns. Should be a good rematch 👍
no need to analyze this guys....All you need to know is that Sticklands daddy has nothing on DDP and the fight will be very similar to last with possibly higher volume

Who thinks it’s going to be a high level chess match or a w@r? I’m not sure what it could be..
Chael it has too be recognized that it was @MMA GURU That helped blow up Dricus's popularity! The guru effect must be recognized the guru ARMY must be recognized in The hype
I'm not even part of the army and I agree
Dricus will finish Sean this time,, Kleenex will sponsor all the Sean crybabies 👍💪🇿🇦❤️
Jones is a duck
UFC is corrupt
🤡🤡 then you should be watching and commenting on another sport.
No controversy
DDP won 3-2 clear as day
This isn't 2008 anymore. Weak Jon Fitch takedowns that don't go anywhere don't win fights. Meanwhile, Sean turned DDPs face into a butcher shop floor. Sean won that fight
Sean should have got a instant rematch. Hope he gets his shot
He instantly lost he got his shot. Win by a sparrow fart or a lot you still lost. If the lakers lose in game 7 by 1 point they still lost. They don’t get another shot unless they beat the entire competition all next year. He cried, pissed, moaned and threatened to quit. The guy got a title shot ranked 6th when he hadn’t earned it yet. He wasn’t a no.1 contender. He fought Costa who everyone’s been beating not Khamzat who he turned down, rob Whittaker he turned down. The fact he is getting a second shot is a miracle and only because it was close and only because his massive fan base that exploded after the Izzy win are on their knees for Sean
Hell nah
ddp had 25 minutes to ko him and even with 6 take downs he couldn't come anywhere near close to submitting him in any way..but I hear ddp is "miraculously evolved as a fighter now", haha, it's strickland's fight to lose, be real
the better game plan won last time, the stubborn stand and swing strickland lost, but even with ONLY that approach he likely only lost due to a fluke cut that hindered his eye sight at the start of the 4th, he probably wins that 4th if not cut and therefore wins the fight, that's how close it was
fun fact, sean and khalil had the same cut colby had, just as bad, but colby's fight was stopped, anyway let's just hope the fight happens
Your dismissing 6 take downs . That's the problem. If Strickland doesn't use his full options like Dricus did,
he (Dricus) could most likely sqweek another decision win.
It's called mixed martials arts. Which ever one uses that effectively for 5 rounds wins. If not, we're getting a repeat of the first fight, with the same outcome
@@kev30631 A repeat of the first fight may not have the same outcome though. You can't rely on winning a split decision. Strickland outstruck DDP by 60 punches, including 50 more significant strikes. If DDP thinks he can sit back and take that assault again I think he's making a mistake. I don't think he will though, I think last fight he took Sean's best punch and was able to power through. This time I think he gets more aggressive and does more with his takedowns. Should be a good rematch 👍
Brunson, Till, Whitaker, Strickland, Izzy...Chael.....its getting old. We knew who DDp was brother
no need to analyze this guys....All you need to know is that Sticklands daddy has nothing on DDP and the fight will be very similar to last with possibly higher volume
Tito tapped to punches
The judges need massive training, the volkov decision was just silly, Strickland won that 1st fight, period
Chael sonnen is number 1 chael sonnen is champion
