Time to bring back from freedom to Australia. Deny Depose Defend.. No idea where this saying is from or who said it but I like. Real catchy…
In 2023, Strickland criticized the Australian government for its lack of freedom of speech. He recalled the story of a pregnant Australian woman who was arrested for questioning the need for strict lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic on her social media.
The first encounter between the two fighters took place in January 2024 at UFC 297, where Dricus emerged victorious by a split decision. Du Plessis boasts a record of 22 wins and 2 losses, while Strickland has 29 wins and 6 losses.
