The world of fights once again faces Sean Strickland outside the octagon. This time, the former UFC middleweight champion (up to 83,9kg), known for his daring style and passion for adrenaline, was involved in a motorcycle accident while trying to perform a risky maneuver.
The incident occurred last week and, despite not having suffered serious injuries, the American had his motorcycle damaged and had to deal with some scratches and bruises on his body.

News of the accident quickly spread across social media, with the fighter himself sharing images of the injuries on his Instagram profile. In his characteristic style, Strickland joked about the situation.
“I finally found the balance point… Then I lost control, haha” on his profile on X (formerly Twitter).

Despite the scare, Strickland appears to be unfazed by what happened and remains focused on his MMA career. The fighter does not have a fight scheduled at the moment, but hopes to have the opportunity to compete for the middleweight belt (up to 83,9kg) against the winner of the clash between Dricus du Plessis e Israel adesanya, which are faced in the UFC 305. It's worth remembering that Sean has already faced both fighters: he lost to the current champion and beat the challenger in the past.
