Midnight Mania! Joe Rogan raves over UFC 297’s Sean Strickland: ‘He never gets tired’

Welcome to Midnight Mania!

UFC coloration commentator Joe Rogan may not be working UFC 297, however he’s a fan of Middleweight champion Sean Strickland, who will tackle Dricus Du Plessis in the principle occasion tomorrow evening (Sat. Jan. 20, 2024) from Scotiabank Enviornment in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Strickland appeared on the Joe Rogan Expertise podcast in July 2023, previous to dethroning Israel Adesanya and taking up the championship mantle.

Strickland’s upset over “Stylebender” shocked a large portion of the MMA group, as Adesanya was closely favored and had simply regained his belt in dramatic fashion. Within the instant aftermath, many questioned if one thing was mistaken with Adesanya, if he was combating too typically or maybe ignored Strickland.

Rogan doesn’t consider there’s any reality to that concept. As a substitute, he thinks that efficiency was simply proof of Strickland’s talent.

“I used to be very impressed,” Rogna defined on a current podcast (by way of Josh Evanoff). “He’s a giant man man, there’s a factor about being assured and delusional. Or, not respecting your opponent and you recognize, I don’t know if that’s what occurred with [Israel] Adesanya and Strickland. I simply suppose Strickland’s that good, I actually do suppose [so].”

An enormous query forward of his first title protection reverse “Stillknocks” is how the South African will fare throughout 5 rounds. He has but to transcend the third contained in the Octagon, and although his nostril being mounted is allegedly going to be a boon to his conditioning, we have seen him fatigue beforehand.

Strickland, in the meantime, can push an unbelievable tempo. Rogan thinks the rationale that Strickland by no means grows drained is due to the mass quantities of sparring in coaching, which permit him to throw quantity at an uncommon charge.

Rogan continued, “He by no means will get drained … I’m very to see who prevails. The Abus Magomedov combat, I feel that combat was one of the vital spectacular fights of Strickland’s fights. Abus comes out in that first spherical like a bat out of hell. However, he simply gassed out, and he gassed out on the finish of the primary spherical. I feel Abus was simply so used to taking guys out, he thought he may simply put it on Sean, and he was hitting Sean with f—king fireplace. That dude’s good man, however Sean simply wilted him, simply wilted him.”

“He doesn’t get drained.” Joe Rogan concluded his reward of Sean Strickland. “When you might have a man who spars as a lot as Sean. The majority of Sean’s coaching is sparring, and he spars laborious. He’s so accustomed to that, that’s actually like a combat all the time.”
