“UFC, Let’s get some shots of you with your friends”… Me “what friend” UFC “maybe you can show us your place” Me “it’s an empty apartment” lol sorry guys,” he added.
Fans quickly chimed in the joke. A fan shared a picture of a relatively empty room, with just a sofa and TV, jokingly claiming it to be Sean’s room. To which, the American fighter replied by sharing an actual video of his almost ‘EMPTY’ apartment.
