Belal Muhammad has given his ideas on how Sean Strickland can use his teep kicks to his benefit in opposition to Anthony Hernandez.
This weekend, Sean Strickland returns to the cage when he goes face to face with Anthony Hernandez at UFC Houston. Whereas the vast majority of headlines this week have been specializing in among the outrageous feedback being made by Strickland, it’s price remembering that there’s an enormous struggle on the horizon right here – and one that would show to be essential for the middleweight division.
Sean Strickland, in fact, is a former world champion at 185 kilos, whereas Hernandez aka ‘Fluffy’ is on the rise, and lots of imagine {that a} large win right here would vault him proper into the primary contender spot, other than maybe Nassourdine Imavov.
In a current video, the aforementioned Belal Muhmmad defined how Sean Strickland’s kicking sport might show to be fairly efficient on Saturday night time.
Belal Muhammad on Sean Strickland’s teep kicks
“Strickland’s going to throw out over 150 teep kicks. I’ll say the one benefit of the teep kick is that Fluffy has proven that he has weak point within the physique – he’s gotten damage to the physique a few instances.
“For Hernandez, I feel you gotta shoot early. In the event you’re coming ahead, shoot on his physique – not capturing on the legs – making him work, irritating him, not giving him any probability to hit you with jabs or with the teep kicks.”
No matter what sort of technique Strickland comes ahead with in Texas, he’s going to have to point out much more on this struggle than he has in his final couple if he’s critical about getting the win. Hernandez, in the meantime, will perceive the size of this contest and what’s on the road for him as he pursues the gold.
