Sean Strickland stepped on the scale ahead of UFC 328 and hit the middleweight limit exactly, checking in at 83.91 kg (185 pounds) to formally clear the way for his main event title defense.
Strickland, 35, carries a professional record of 31-7-0 and currently holds the middleweight championship. The American fighter, who trains out of Xtreme Couture, stands six-foot-one (185 cm) with a 76-inch reach and competes out of an orthodox stance. Known for relentless output on the feet, "Tarzan" lands 6.04 significant strikes per minute and posts a striking accuracy of 42 percent — numbers that reflect his volume-heavy, pressure-oriented style. He adds modest wrestling to that base, averaging 0.71 takedowns per 15 minutes.
