Sean Strickland posted inflammatory comments about New York City ahead of his fight against Khamzat Chimaev in Newark, New Jersey. The bout will take place at Prudential Center, just 35 minutes from Central Park. Instead of traditional promotional outreach to locals, Strickland tweeted that New York is 'the perfect example of what it means to be a Democrat,' calling children, adults, and leaders 'pathetic.' He further stated that New York and the majority of its residents are 'a disgrace to America,' and that residents are 'either a criminal or a rich pussy without a backbone.' The comments represent a sharp departure from typical fighter promotion strategies.
