I thought Conor McGregor sparring with an actual tiger was the nuttiest training camp gimmick I ever heard of, right up until UFC middleweight titleholder, Dricus Du Plessis, jumped into shallow water to wrangle a massive shark.

“Stillknocks” is scheduled to defend his middleweight title atop the UFC 312 pay-per-view (PPV) card this February in Sydney. Opposing the South African slugger is former 185-pound champion, Sean Strickland, who coughed up the crown at UFC 297 in Toronto.
Blame those “dirty Canadian leftists.”
Strickland has yet to comment on the champ’s recent shark party, but did have a heartfelt holiday greeting for his followers on Twitter.
