Sean Strickland thinks Alex Pereira is the second coming of Chuck Liddell.
UFC 320 saw ‘Poatan’ reclaim the 205-pound crown, scoring an incredible 80-second knockout against Magomed Ankalaev in the evening’s headliner.
Strickland, who knows a thing or two about the kind of power Pereira possesses, likened ‘Poatan’ to another UFC light heavyweight legend during an interview with MMA Junkie.
“The guy has a death punch, dude,” Strickland said. “Like, f*ck a dude. Like Ankalaev dude, he came and trained with us, so he’s so f*cking good, dude.
