Sean Strickland criticizes Josh Hawkit's street interview content style

Sean Strickland commented on Josh Hawkit's public persona, stating he knows Josh and considers him a nice person, but finds his content creation approach off-putting. Strickland criticized Hawkit, who is around 35 years old, for walking around the streets doing interviews like an 18-year-old trying to become a YouTube star, comparing it to Jake Paul's behavior at 13. Despite calling Hawkit a friend, Strickland described the act as entirely fake and resembling a WWE sketch he wants to end. He acknowledged that Hawkit's approach is working since he's fighting at the White House event, but suggested he should be himself and focus on training instead.
