Sean Strickland responds to the accusation of Dricus du Plessis that he has a staphylococcal infection in the UFC 312

Sean Strickland is healthy and ready to fight.

This is the message that the former average weight champion spent Thursday in response to a publication on the social networks of Folding Dricus This wondered if he may have brought an infection with him from the United States to Australia. On Wednesday, Du Plessis published a photo featuring an image side by side of Stackland of their first meeting, then during this week of combat in Australia in his Instagram stories with the legend “What?” He became larger and added a staphylococcal infection to his arsenal. Oh shit.”

In the last question during UFC 312 Press conference before the fight, Strickland responded to this position after he was asked if he was actually fighting for a Staphylococcus infection before the revenge match.

“Listen to Motherf * ckers, I’m safe from staph,” cried Strickland. “Do you see this F * Cking mustache?” I give staph, I am not a staphyle cking.

“Calm the F * CK downwards. I’m not sick. I do not have injuries and I do not receive F * cking staph. So relax.

Staphyloque infections are caused by staphylococcus bacteria And are commonly found on the skin, but if they are not treated properly, infection can really become fatal if bacteria invade blood circulation, joints, bones, lungs or heart.

Skin infection, which often looks like boiling or bulb, can be very contagious, which is why fighters often deal with the problem due to the physical contact required during training sessions at the gymnasium. Treatment of staphylococcus infection involves an antibiotic course, which can also negatively affect athletes in a fight.

But obviously, Strickland promises that he is not dealing with any infection at Staph, no matter what Plessis says about it and he is just ready to go to business in the octagon.

“I’m going to be there on Sunday and I’m going to get out of the hard and Fort F * Cking,” said Strickland. “The hardest and strongest you have ever seen. At the death of F * Cking, Dutch! »»
