Baysangur Susurkayev shared details of sparring with Sean Strickland at the UFC Performance Institute. According to Susurkayev, Strickland showed great respect for Chechen fighters and never asked him to reduce intensity despite having a fight with Hernandez just two weeks away. Susurkayev landed hard leg kicks at full power during their sparring session. He contrasted Strickland's approach with many American fighters who request lighter sparring even a month before their bouts. Susurkayev praised Strickland's character and work ethic during training.
