"The fact that you even have a platform or anything of that nature is a slight on society," he exclaimed.
"You truly make me f**king disgusted.
"If I ever encounter you in real life.. I hope that I just don't lose my sh*t... and go to prison."
Strickland, meanwhile, hasn't fought since surrendering the UFC middleweight title to Dricus Du Plessis at UFC 297 at the start of the year.
