“I can’t leave town for one minute?!” Nicksick tweeted. “Just wait till Dad gets home to straighten you two out.”
Strickland has quickly become a fan favorite in the UFC middleweight division, following a remarkable comeback after losing the title to Dricus du Plessis. With a recent victory over Costa, he may be on track for a title shot.
The upcoming UFC 305 main event will feature du Plessis against Israel Adesanya. Strickland is a likely contender for the winner, competing with former titleholder Robert Whittaker.
On the other hand, Curtis recently engaged in a memorable battle against Brendan Allen in April, although he has faced three losses in his last four fights. He aims to return to prominence in the 185lbs division.
Strickland has stirred controversy in recent weeks, including a contentious remark about Belal Muhammad’s appearance leading up to UFC 304. While their relationship may be strained, Nicksick is hopeful about reconciling Strickland and Curtis as teammates.
