You can watch Strickland simulate waterboarding below.
After the above clip went viral, one fan asked Strickland why he decided to do it in the first place.
You think “I can just breathe lightly and take a big breath when the water stops” nope you are 100 percent drowning……….

“You think “I can just breathe lightly and take a big breath when the water stops”, nope you are 100 percent drowning…….” Strickland responded.
Strickland aims to sit out for a middleweight title shot against the winner of the expected championship fight between Dricus du Plessis and Israel Adesanya. Du Plessis defeated Strickland at UFC 297 to earn the belt by split decision.
Strickland has won four of his last five fights since back-to-back losses to Alex Pereira and Jared Cannonier in 2022. He’s expected to return by the end of 2024, although it’s uncertain if his wait for a title shot will prove rewarding.
In the meantime, Strickland is enjoying life away from the cage, even if he chooses to entertain himself in bizarre ways.
