I missed the rant. What did he say ?

I found the rant. Yeaaa wasn't a good look.

UFC's Sean Strickland goes on homophobic & transphobic rant during press conference

The athlete previously declared that he’d feel like he “failed as a man” if he had a gay son.

[The G.O.D II]

someone remarked how strickland was ''enjoying being champ'' rather than ''trying to stay champ'', like how miesha tate did when she won the title

dude got the belt and thought it meant he kept it forever

I think one of the bloody elbow guys wrote that in their previews. I don’t think that’s the case. He just got a fluke win over Israel. He’s honestly not that good.

What he said about that deceased MMA fighter is why I hope that white fakkit catches a stray to the head

 

[DerrtySouthpaw]

Sean Strickland being humble in defeat is exactly why I hate him because he’s Colby Covington but an actual mixed martial artist. legit talent with how this division currently is

 

[Deafheaven]

I hate virtually everything about the ufc outside of the fights and Strickland encapsulated all of that. No champ should be as brazenly stupid, hypocritical snd hate filled as that. Even in a org of low IQ nikkas like the ufc

 

[The G.O.D II]

But at the very least Dana doesn’t have to worry about the PR nightmare that is Strickland. Dude kinda got exposed in the lead up of this bout too. Talking shyt nonstop about other fighters but in Du Plessis DM begging for peace and crying like a ho on that road rules cac podcast. Good riddance. Two annoying crakkkas washed in back to back months

 

[profound]

Drake's curse continues.

when i kept hearing ''drake bet this event'' but didnt know who it was on, i couldn't believe i was facing the possibility of having the same bet as him, so i ran to google to see he had strickland and i was knowing my dricius bet was insulated with drakes shytty luck

Who was the other guy?

Edit: Nevermind. I figure you're talking about that human stain, Colby.

 

[TheSuperkick!]

So I was playing catch up and saw nothing but negative comments on every page I viewed. Thank God I stayed home tonight.

I rly think his mouth lost him this decision... Sure DDP was always on the offensive but he was punching air most of the time and those takedowns were useless and he was the champ. A draw was more fitting but after that trash card it would have been a huge fukk YOU to that crowd.
I would rly like to see DDP fight a sober Costa

Same dude who confessed to wanting to be a neo Nazi and recently roasted Colby for his comments on Leon’s dad dying. Crying about ppl being soft but fights ddp for his comments and cries on Theo von podcast over his abuse as a child. Wannabe antihero mfer

 

[ciubaca]

Most of the UFC fighters dont rly care what they say because they cant get endorsements outside of the UFC
If you know several brands are gonna drop you, you would chose your words more carefully

 

[Tommy Gibbs]

I was so happy that cheating azz Silva got her azz beat tonight hahaha. She did all that screaming with theatrics during her intro and Pennington beat her ass. I had actually picked Silva to win by decision. I didn't think Pennington would dominate like this. damn.

 

[Vεnεficα]

The first half of the prelims were better than the main card. Strickland's fight should have been the co-main of another PPV instead of being the headliner but of course Dana White tried to push another mediocre scumbag fighter as the next big thing and flops again, and honestly I wasn't impressed with DuPlessis either.

Oh, and UFC should give Val the bag to go up to Bantamweight, nobody up there is beating her if Nunes stays retired.
