This UFC Star Just Had Perhaps The Rudest And Most Random Press Conference Ever
From admitting to wanting to kill people to his frequent use of the word "gay", let's just say he basically offended everyone in the room.
Sean Strickland just had one of the rudest and most bizarre press conferences we've ever seen.
From openly admitting to contemplating killing people with his bare hands to his frequent use of the word "gay", let's just say he basically offended everyone in the building.
The MMA star will be looking to climb the middleweight rankings with an impressive victory over fellow contender Jack Hermansson this weekend at UFC Fight Night 200.
But instead of discussing his upcoming opponent, Strickland got pretty side-tracked during his chat with the media.
"I'm getting to a point where I can say s**t and not get cut from the UFC," Strickland told reporters at the UFC Apex.
"Before, it's like 'oh man, I wasn't good'. Like, I couldn't say s**t because Dana White would be like, 'Hey, go f**k that white trash motherf**ker. Get him out of here.' But now, since I'm growing a little bit more like, you know, fan base, people want to watch me fight, I can say a lot more offensive s**t.
"Every every coach or manager I ever had, like, 'Sean, shut up. They're not going to sign you. Like, shut up. They don't want that. They want an image.' Now, I'm just going to be the white trash motherf**ker that I am. It's nice."
But at one point during the 10-minute press conference, he singled out a journalist and told him he has a "gay haircut".
That wasn't the only time he was homophobic though.
"I love gay men. Gay men are awesome," Strickland said.
"Lesbians, not so much. Lesbians hate me. Lesbians look at me like the guy that hurt them. I'm not the guy. I'm not your father. But gay men - gay men look at me like they want to f**k me, and I respect that. You know, they compliment me. They slide in my DMs. I get some d**k pics every now and then. I respect that s**t, so I'm not homophobic."
Strickland even goes on to say that material belongings like nice cars and houses are only purchased "to get laid" and "f**k women".
