Sean Strickland calls New York a 'disgrace to America' ahead of Newark fight

Sean Strickland has posted a harsh tweet attacking New York ahead of his fight against Khamzat Chimaev in Newark, which is located near New York City. Instead of the typical fighter behavior of praising the local area, Strickland called New York 'the perfect example of what it means to be a Democrat.' He described the children, adults, and leaders as pathetic, and called New York and the majority of its residents a disgrace to America. Strickland stated that people there are either criminals or rich without backbone.
