Sean Strickland (#7) is one of the rising contenders in the UFC’s middleweight division. During his time with the UFC, he has also garnered an immense fan-following as he speaks his mind and does not hold back. Considering that, people always like to hear what he has to say. The same happened in his recent interview.

‘Tarzan’ gave his take on Jared Cannonier saying he’ll turn ‘Blonde Brunson’ into ‘Blood Brunson’. Strickland said, “Man, no, I got my money on Brunson. Brunson can wrestle. I know Cannonier likes to stand and bang, dude. But I think Brunson gets the W but I don’t watch f**king MMA, so, I mean. Two scary black men are fighting bro, it’s gonna be good.”

“Izzy f**king starched Brunson, I mean, obviously I want the title fight,” Strickland said. “I’ll bring Izzy a f**king bra. I hope he’s cycled off correctly, he’s ti**y is not down to here. But I would like the title fight, Izzy, so, do me a favor man, call me out, bro. Let’s go anime.”

Strickland didn’t hold back while talking anime and said, “Anime, f**king g*y right. Schmo, do you watch anime? Bro, if you watched anime, I would never do an interview with you.”

In his taunt, Strickland was referring to the swollen pectoral muscle Adesanya had before the Paulo Costa fight.

Sean Strickland is ready to fight Jake Paul for $5 million

Jake Paul has been in the news recently for his brutal knockout win over Tyron Woodley and also for calling out more UFC fighters. After putting Woodley to sleep, ‘The Problem Child‘ called out Jorge Masvidal for a fight.

He even offered him $5 million, plus a percentage of PPV sales. However, Masvidal rejected the offer and asked for $20 million for the fight to happen. It seems like that fight will be difficult, but Paul might have another fighter willing to step in. UFC middleweight Sean Strickland, according to his tweet, would be happy to fight Paul, and it doesn’t even have to be inside a ring or octagon.

In his tweet, he wrote, @jakepaul you offer me 5 MILLION to fight you, f**k we can fly to a deserted island in international water and fight to the death on YouTube for that kind of money… bare-knuckle, gloves, knives, clubs…. lol! Let’s f**king go. @GamebredFighter.”

Strickland is not the one to back away from a challenge, and for $5 million, he would love to step in. However, it doesn’t seem that a fight like that will happen; especially the type of one that ‘Tarzan’ has in mind.
