Sean Strickland stunned UFC fans with how he celebrated after getting married.

Strickland hasn't fought since his UFC middleweight title defeat to Dricus du Plessis last February but grabbed headlines with his 'disturbing' take on Charlie Kirk's death.

He suffered a unanimous decision defeat at UFC 312, failing to become a two-time UFC middleweight champion.

The 34-year-old has focused on his personal life since his defeat to Du Plessis, having got married to his partner.

He has been in a serious relationship with her for some time, but her identity has been kept private until she appeared on the UFC 293 Embedded shows.

The American fighter travelled to Australia to face Israel Adesanya for the UFC middleweight and was accompanied with his other half on fight week.

They have since got married, with Strickland celebrating in typical fashion.

A video has surfaced of Strickland and his newly wife shooting guns.

She can be seen shooting an automatic weapon while still in her wedding dress.

Needless to say, Strickland's post-wedding celebration got UFC fans online talking as they couldn't get enough of the couple's antics.

One X user wrote: "Can't even get married without shooting a gun so cringe," while another added: "Looks exactly how I’d imagine his wedding to be."

A third joked: "This is exactly how I imagined a Sean Strickland wedding to look."

Speaking before their wedding, Strickland credited his partner for transforming his life.

"I have a girlfriend who I love very much," he explained. "I said it. She makes me a better man, you guys... I was just telling her this the other day, I tell my girl, I’m like, babe every time I think about breaking up with you and I think about all the p**sy I can get, I think about who I was before I met you.

"As much as I like being single and getting all [redacted] with you guys, my girl she makes me a truly better man and baby, I thank you for that."

When Strickland resumes his UFC career, he will enter the Octagon as a married man.

Given his ranking in the middleweight division (No.3), he is in line for a big fight upon his UFC return.
