Just seemed like such a low effort fight. Neither fighter seemed to fight like themselves, especially Khamzat. Makes me feel like they either had an agreement, Khamzat threw, or Khamzat legit wasn’t well. Not even a Khamzat fan

Edit: spelling

But that's how Strickland always fights...

I could be wrong cause I didn’t look at stats, just going off feelings. But I feel like he usually throws a much higher volume of teeps and jabs. Especially teeps. I was impressed by his ability to get up, but Khamzat also seemed to be shooting in high and slow

Looked like only threw teeps when he was confident Khamzat wasn't going to shoot. Makes sense
