Sean Strickland rides dirt bikes with Johny Eblen two weeks before UFC 328

UFC middleweight Sean Strickland went dirt bike riding with Bellator champion Johny Eblen just two weeks before Strickland's championship fight against Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 328. Strickland revealed that after completing a five-round training war, he suggested they go ride motocross bikes. Remarkably, Eblen had never ridden a dirt bike before accepting Strickland's invitation. Strickland expressed respect for Eblen's willingness to try something new and his overall mindset. The unconventional training camp activity raised eyebrows given the proximity to Strickland's title fight and the injury risk associated with motocross riding. Both fighters are preparing for championship bouts in their respective organizations.
