Yep. Izzy didn't expect or see that coming. He felt the left and opened up to corner but ran into a straight right.

One of, if not the best jabs in the sport right now. Whats crazy is these guys know what they are getting with Sean. He walks straight forward. He doesn't use the angles a normal advanced striker would use. He stands square in front of you, yet people can't hit him. His defense is even more underrated than his jab.

Insane boxing skills for an MMA fighter.

Yeah and his offense is also part of his defense. He is so close up in their grill all the time, always moving forward pressuering them, that most people look like get claustrophobic when having to fight him with barely any room to maneuver and read his movements as he is simply too close for them to go into their normal routine. Also leg kicks etc are super difficult to properly land on him when he is that close to you. When you watch what he does, he barely even looks towards what they might do with their legs, his gaze is almost entirely set on their head, hands and an upper body, right where he wants to land. He knows that most people will not be able to hit alot of kicks when he is close up, and when they try, he sees the opening to go for their head at that moment.

“Jack, why’s your head made of steel?” 😂😂😂😂

Strickland never loads up too much. He just throws up some strong small shots accurately for long periods of time until the opponent is just tired and starts getting wobbly from all the chin bonks. I really see his technical style overwhelming ddp unless ddp just gets a strong early takedown and ground n pound or something big early. 🤔

You really have to put him away to beat him. Relentlessly in your face and chips away at you physically and mentally. Looking back, idk why I was so surprised he beat Izzy. He had Izzy defeated mentally before they ever stepped in the octagon. And then fought the perfect fight. Glad he's getting the respect he deserves.
