During the same presser, Dricus Du Plessis brought up Strickland’s abusive childhood after the champ alleged a sexual relationship between the South African and his coach. Strickland subsequently attacked Du Plessis while attending UFC 296 the next day.
Strickland recently admitted that Du Plessis’ comments had triggered him as they crossed certain boundaries. The 32-year-old also shared vivid details about his abusive childhood in an emotional interview with comedian Theo Von. Garry couldn’t resist the urge to get back at Strickland, taking a jab at the champ’s handling of trash talk.
“How the tables have turned,” Garry wrote in the comments of an Instagram post. “You dish it out in the lowest, most vile manner, but can’t take a pinch. You attacked my wife incessantly and obsessively, calling her a [pedophile].”
“It’s clear to see your childhood trauma showing. You claimed you were ‘giving me advice’ before, well now it’s my turn to return the favor: You should shut your mouth and focus on the mirror because you have enough serious issues you need to solve. I wish you all the best with them. Don’t ever project your pain onto me and my family again.”
Strickland is scheduled to defend his strap against Du Plessis at UFC 297 on Jan 20. at the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto. Meanwhile, Garry will square off against Geoff Neal at UFC 298.
