UFC 312 Preview Show | Can Sean Strickland Win UFC Gold Again vs. Sean Strickland? Plus, Zhang vs. Suarez
Sean Strickland will look to pull off another upset and become a two-time UFC middleweight champion, but standing in his way is the Dricus du Plessis — who defeated Strickland for the title 13 months ago — coming off of an impressive title defense against Israel Adesanya. Can Strickland regain UFC gold, or is this du Plessis' division for the foreseeable future? Ahead of Saturday's UFC 312 pay-per-view event, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew preview the card, discuss the du Plessis vs. Strickland rematch, what adjustments to look for from both fighters, and predict who leaves Sydney with the title. Additionally, they talk the intriguing co-main event for the strawweight belt between Zhang Weili and Tatiana Suarez, which fighter needs the win more, if Zhang would become a top-five women's fighter of all-time with a win, Dominick Cruz announcing his retirement on Thursday night, Canelo Alvarez pulling a fast one on Jake Paul, and more.
