Media Strickland issues statement after loss - Mentions headbutt

[GordonMMARamsey]

Pretty close fight, I dont have a problem with either guy getting his hand raised. I think Izzy is going to wreck DDP.

 

[Robbocop]

Fair call, I really thought the cut was caused by a right hook.

 

[usernamee]

that's terrible

no doubt in my mind that judges were greatly affected by all the blood

Now I understand why Sean and Chris Curtis are such close friends. Neither can take any loss like a man and instead always have some lame excuse, absolving themselves of blame, for why their opponent won.

Chris Curtis: "Hermansson ran away from me"
Sean: "Cannonier ran away from me"

Chris Curtis: "Gastelum headbutted me"
Sean: "Dricus headbuttted me"

Following this trajectory I am guessing Sean is going to take the easy way out of his next fight after getting his ass beat for the first 7.5 minutes.

I don't like playing armchair psychologist through a screen nor do i like speculating on a fighter's seriously personal information, and I REALLY am hesitant to word out something I just  feel is correct from my experience in people's personality traits and facial tics from my time in the special education field, but I can swear Chris has  something diagnosable about him (that isn't to say how much it actually affects aspects of his life, since that was a large part of diagnosis back when I was learning).

But if that's the mentality Sean's on par with? Man, that's not a good look.

Just had to sneak an excuse in there eh

 

[Robbocop]

This clip is from round 4 at 40 seconds into the round (4:20 on the clock). 10 seconds earlier Du Plessis lands an overhand right that cuts Strickland on his left eyebrow. You can see him blink it out, and you can see the blood flowing from his eyebrow. Quite a deceptive video especially with the voice overlay and the rewinding and fast forwarding, not including the punch seconds earlier that cut him.

Oh, a McGregor emoji. Insightful.
Strickland lost me with his fucking shirt. I liked the guy before but a women in every kitchen and a gun in every house?!

C'mon.

The problem with the excuse is that he would’ve lost if they stopped the fight due to a headbutt. He was down 2-1 on 2 of the judges scorecards headed to the 4th

Whatever you're going through, you'll get through it.

 

[Ramon Antonio]

Seemed like Sean was in cruise control all night... if he would have used some killer instinct he would have won the fight , no doubt...

It's rare to see a guy who spars so hard fight that timid.

 

[Wetarmpits]

I’m very very good. But thanks for the projected concern. You goof.

 

[GordonMMARamsey]

And here he is whining again. Fucking baby.
