Reinier de Ridder, after defeating Bo Nickal at UFC on ESPN 67, is looking to secure a matchup against Sean Strickland. Despite being a betting underdog, de Ridder showcased his grappling prowess, surprising Nickal with body strikes that led to a second-round victory. Post-fight, he expressed excitement yet some regret about calling out Strickland, known for his trash-talking. De Ridder believes the matchup is stylistically intriguing and aims to capture Strickland's attention for a fight soon, highlighting his confidence and ambition in the UFC.
"I think I might be regretting it a little bit, but as I said in the cage, [Bo] is the best American wrestler, let's do the best American striker."
"He's got a very good jab, I don't think my jab is too bad. I would like that fight... next week, Montreal baby, let's go."
