Ian Machado Garry took a great amount of pleasure in seeing Sean Strickland lose his title to Dricus Du Plessis at UFC 297.
Garry (13-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC), who has been engaged in a war of words with Strickland (28-6 MMA, 15-6 UFC) in recent months after the now former UFC champ talked about the Irish prospect’s wife, was joyous in the result of Saturday’s headliner at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, where Du Plessis claimed the middleweight title by split decision.
“The f*cking state of this,” Garry said in a video posted on social media watching Strickland vs. Du Plessis fight footage. “Zero technique. Slugging it out. Oh my God. I feel like I’m watching two amateurs fight. Oh my God. If I ever have a fight like that, please tell me to retire.”
