Sean Strickland responds to Hamzat Chimaev's comments about New Jersey

Sean Strickland has fired back at Hamzat Chimaev's recent statements about the Muslim community in New Jersey and Strickland's inability to carry weapons there. Strickland called Chimaev a coward and criticized his threats about having friends attack on his behalf. Strickland stated: "That's why you're a coward. All these threats: 'We'll jump you, my Muslim friends will jump you.' You might live in America, but you have no idea what it means to be American or just a man." The exchange represents the latest verbal sparring between the two middleweights.
