The MMA community loves it when their favorite fighters collaborate. Over the years, fans have seen some weird connections between UFC fighters. Everyone was quite shocked when Jon Jones and Israel Adesanya squashed their beef. However, the latest combination of former middleweight champion Sean Strickland and controversial fighter Bryce Mitchell has now taken the internet by storm.

Bryce Mitchell recently shared a video of himself hanging out with Sean Strickland in his car. In the video, both fighters were having a good time, with Strickland flaunting his Second Amendment rights with a handgun. Strickland then can be heard asking Mitchell about sitting in a Tesla, given his long-standing hatred for Tesla CEO Elon Musk.

In the past, Mitchell has often publicly dissed Elon Musk and his companies. According to the featherweight fighter, Musk is a ‘false prophet’ manipulating others for his evil cause. Other than this, Mitchell also gave other controversial opinions supporting the flat earth theory, the Texas school shooting, etc. Like Mitchell, Strickland also regularly finds himself in the middle of controversies.
