Charles Oliveira uncovers the real Sean Strickland behind the camera

While not everyone appreciates Sean Strickland's outspoken personality, former UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira is a notable exception, as he holds great affection for 'Tarzan.'

In a recent interview, MMA journalist James Lynch inquired 'Do Bronx' about his views on the 185-pound champion, both in terms of his fighting abilities and his personality.

According to Oliveira, various fighters employ distinct promotional strategies, and Strickland is merely utilizing the approach that has been effective for him. He said (translated from Portuguese):

"You know, to be fair, he has always been very nice to me. I have nothing but good things to say about Sean. Everyone kind of sells their fights a bit differently, and he's got to what he has to do, but he has always been really nice to me, and I have nothing but good things to say about Sean."
