Sean Strickland doesn’t care who he fights next as long as he makes a lot of PPV money. The fighter has finally made his first public interview after becoming the new UFC middleweight champion. Recently, Strickland appeared on his podcast, The Man Dance, co-hosted by fellow UFC fighter Chris Curtis and talked about UFC 293.
After the satisfactory win over Israel Adesanya and dominating the former champion, fans are obviously thrilled about Strickland’s next fight During the conversation, Strickland made it clear that he doesn’t care about the fighter, as his main priority is making money.
He said, “My thing is, dude, when it comes to that next fight, everybody’s like, ‘Who do you want to fight?’ I don’t give a f***, dude. I want to make f****** money. I get those pay-per-view buys. Give me somebody who’s going to make f****** money. I don’t want to fight anybody boring. I want to fight, you know, give me someone who’s making money.”
According to the champion, he wants those PPV buys and a boring fighter won’t be able to provide that much. It’s clear that the ‘Tarzan’ wants a big name who has the ability to sell arenas and help him make a fat paycheck. Some of the big names, excluding Izzy, are Dricus Du Plessis, Robert Whittaker, and Khamzat Chimaev. It will be interesting to see what the UFC decides and when it happens.
Sean Strickland claims that Andrew Tate would be scared of him if brought face-to-face
Sean Strickland has made his fan base for being unapologetically himself and expressing his beliefs to the world. As the reigning UFC middleweight champion, he continues to do so. In the same podcast, Strickland passionately spoke out against a culture that feeds individuals from an early age with commercial pressures, urging them to embrace their individuality and personal choices. He expressed his sadness over how a generation of young men has been influenced to link their self-value primarily through materialistic factors such as cars and clothing.
Sean Strickland got his message across by sharing a simple example. He said that if a woman decides whether to be with someone just based on the car they drive, she’s probably not the right match Tarzan’s example serves as a reminder that genuine connections are built on deeper qualities, and superficial judgments often miss the true essence of a person.
He also had a little fun on the side by playfully mentioning social media influencer Andrew Tate. Strickland suggested that if they were in the same room, Tate likely wouldn’t meet his gaze, hinting that he might feel intimidated by Strickland’s presence.
