I remember I was like in third grade, or no, second grade and I kept falling asleep on my desk and my teacher took my desk away from me and made me like stand up. So me I’m like, ‘Fu*k you’, being this little kid, I just went ahead and fell asleep on the ground, and mind you the school system is like, ‘Sean, he’s just a bad kid’. They don’t realize I’m up until 3 O’Clock in the morning like dude I remember like laying in bed, I remember I stopped believing in God man, like crazy sh*t dude

Sean Strickland and Dricus Du Plessis are set to fight at UFC 297 on January 20, 2024, which will mark the UFC’s first pay-per-view event of the year. Sean Strickland, after beating Israel Adesanya, became the UFC middleweight champion, and since then, the South African fighter Dricus Du Plessis was in the people’s minds as he was earlier scheduled to fight Adesanya, but an unfortunate injury made him pull out of the title fight. Sean Strickland was the last-minute savior of the title fight and inflicted one of the biggest upsets of UFC history by dethroning Adesanya.
