Quick read
Sean Strickland posted a harsh criticism of New York on social media ahead of his fight with Khamzat Chimaev in Newark. The bout will take place at Prudential Center, just 35 minutes from Central Park in Manhattan. Rather than the typical promotional approach of praising the host city, Strickland tweeted that New York is "a perfect example of what it means to be a Democrat" and called the city's children, adults, and leaders "pathetic." He stated that New York and most of its residents are "a disgrace to America," adding that people there are "either a criminal or a rich pussy without a core." The inflammatory comments go against the usual fighter approach of building goodwill with local fans before an event.
