Sean Strickland record

29-6

Something of a UFC journeyman, Sean Strickland had lost five of his 17 fights in the Octagon, to Santiago Ponzinibbio, Kamaru Usman, Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos, Alex Pereira and Jared Cannonnier, but back-to-back wins saw him get a title shot against Israel Adesanya.

Grabbing it with both hands, Strickland won by unanimous decision to win the title before losing to Dricus du Plessis. A win last time out to Paulo Costa sees Strickland get a rematch at UFC 312.
