A fight week with Sean Strickland would be incomplete without his divisive thoughts on recent events. This time around, the American made a comparison between UFC fighters and pornographic movie actors.
UFC President Dana White made headlines for his contentious take on Paddy Pimblett's controversial decision victory and the main event between Magomed Ankalaev and Jan Blachowicz ending in a split draw. The MMA community criticized the UFC president for his allegedly biased and insensitive remarks.
White's announcement that Glover Teixeira and Jamaal Hill will battle for the vacant 205-pound crown next, ignoring the efforts of Blachowicz and Ankalaev, led Josh Thomson to believe that the UFC head honcho "never gave a f**k" about his athletes.
During the pre-fight media scrum for UFC Vegas 66, Sean Strickland was his usual unfiltered self, shedding light on White's insensitive comments:
"If I'm the CEO of the UFC, and I'm like, 'What big scary motherf**ers can we pick to fight each other.' And afterwards, I'm like, 'I hope you're having a good Christmas. I hope life is good.' No! We're f**king cattle dude. Us vs. pornstars, what's the difference?"
Strickland added:
"I love my job, but I'm not gonna go look in the f***ing mirror and think I'm LeBron James, I'm not. I'm a f**king prostitute, man."
Sean Strickland is slated to headline UFC Vegas 66 alongside former middleweight title challenger Jared Cannonier this weekend.

Jared Cannonier shares his strategy for combating Sean Strickland's infamous trash talk
Jared Cannonier will lock horns with Sean Strickland in the main event of UFC Vegas 66 this weekend. Both fighters are coming off losses and seem eager to get their hands raised come Saturday night.
Strickland's mid-fight trash talk is notoriously famous inside the MMA community. 'Tarzan' is often seen talking to opponents in between exchanges, trying to get under their skin.
Previewing the upcoming clash with the mercurial middleweight contender, Jared Cannonier stated that he might be performing poorly if Strickland continues to heckle him:
"If he's doing that, then I'm not doing my job well enough. I'm not putting the pressure on him to make focus more on the fight as opposed to focusing on talking crap and taking me out of my element. I think he will be having his hands full to talk some crap."
