Sean Strickland shared a post-training picture of him with some of the best in the game right now
Xtreme Couture MMA is home to some of the biggest names in the sport. It is slowly developing into the ‘Mecca’ of MMA, especially for overseas fighters with bouts coming up close.
UFC middleweight Sean Strickland has generated interest from MMA fans by the virtue of his style inside and outside the octagon. While he is known for his retro mettlesome personality, his fighting style is reflective of his fearlessness. And it was only developed with time, by training with absolute savages on a regular basis.
Khamzat Chimaev was accompanied by Darren Till for his upcoming fight against Gilbert Burns in April, and the pair stopped by to train at Xtreme Couture. Strickland shared a picture of them post training captioning the post, ‘All killers!!’
It would have been a great meeting of mind, given Strickland, Chimaev and Till’s candid character.
