Sean Strickland on Dricus Du Plessis
“Before the Dricus fight, I was f***ing riding with [motocross rider] Axell Hodges and I broke my shoulder. So I was in Colombia getting stem cells on my shoulder, and they hit me up for the fight... The thing with the UFC, you don’t say no. They are p*mps. You don’t say no to the masters. So I was kind of backed up into a corner taking that fight.”

– via Kairouz Bros podcast, revealing for the first time that he fought Dricus Du Plessis at UFC 312 with a broken shoulder.
