"Nah, he's just playing the villain role, drama sells, you know."

"Strickland, "I fuc*ing hate these social media influencers. They're a cancer within the human population." Adin Ross calls him up [the most annoying social media streamer], he asks Sean if they could collaborate, and what does Strickland do? Sean is down to collab?"

Israel Adesanya claims Dana White warned him against fighting Sean Strickland at UFC 293

Sean Strickland captured the middleweight throne with a dominant unanimous decision win against Israel Adesanya at UFC 293.

However, before the fight, Dana White reportedly advised Adesanya to skip the bout and take time off. Adesanya chose to fight anyway since he was motivated to compete in Sydney.

Despite White’s concerns, the fight went ahead, and Adesanya has been on a three-fight losing skid since then. Shedding light on White's comments during a podcast episode with Sean O'Malley and Tim Welch on his YouTube channel, Adesanya said:

“I was like, 'nah, I have to fight in Sydney.' I haven’t fought on this side of the world in so long. And then Dana [White] was like, ‘listen, kid, you’ve got enough money. Just chill out for a while.’ I’m like, 'yeah, it’s not that.' So I was like, 'nah,' I went all stubborn."
