Media The Australian Media Slaughters Strickland after his loss

[octagonation]

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Ah, was waiting for this. Wasn't the KO they wanted, but figured they'd pounce on him regardless, if he lost.

 

[GordoBarraBJJ]

Sean brought it on himself.

To the death my ass. He literally fought the opposite way of "to the death".

 

[John makfresshi]

His nose getting shattered was fucking brutal! It was actually spraying blood out of the bridge and both nostrils at one point

 

[icemun]

This was a boring ass fight

Beautiful kick though-

It's hard to take some media seriously when they inject their own pejoratives in the headlines and articles obviously showing their bias.

 

[Fact Checker]

I’m confused… Why is the Aussie media being overly sensitive? Did Strickland somehow hurt their feelings?


Outside of a punch to the nose Strick ate while backpedaling, he took virtually no damage. Boring performance but that’s impressive in its own feat considering DDP puts away most people in front of him. DDP himself still praises Stricklands style.

The only one who’s been able to “destroy” Stricklands style is Pereira.


This comes off as a bunch of losers with an agenda grasping at straws

Its the sports section, not that serious.

 

[Natural Order]

Just EVISCERATED him, eh?

Doesn't just occur in the sports section unfortunately. Still think it discredits integrity, sports section or not.

1. You're confusing straight reporting with editorials, which express opinions are meant to be biased.

2. It's ridiculous to see all of this handwringing about the media criticizing Strickland when he runs his mouth non-stop and deliberately insulted the country he was in.

They're all paid stooges by Dana. Trying to manufacture interest for a Strickland/Whitaker match up.

Perceptive, tbh. Real talk

 

[Bork Neslar]

Australian media has made me like Strickland.

Seems like journalism as a whole is moving to the editorial format. The fight was closer than reported. Some rounds were close, but DDP was better. You wouldn't know that reading these headlines. Criticize his opinions all you want, but when you inject name calling into the articles, it seems unprofessional.

Based Dana

Made you like Strickland or the way Strickland fights because there are no amount of words that make you like the way Strickland fights, right?
