On Wednesday, UFC fighter Sean Strickland went on a major rant during a press conference before his fight in Toronto this weekend.
A Canadian reporter tried to ask about some comments the fighter had made in the past about the LGBTQ+ community. Strickland went on to berate the reporter even more, repeatedly asking, “Are you gay?”
“You’re a weak f*cking man. You elected Justin Trudeau,” he said, after learning that the reporter was not homophobic. “The fact that you have no f*cking backbone, and as he shut down your country and seized bank accounts, you ask me some stupid sh*t like that. Go f*ck yourself.”
“Ten years ago, to be trans was a mental f*cking illness,” the fighter continued. “And now, all of a sudden, people like you have f*cking weaseled your way in the world. You are an infection. You are the definition of weakness. Everything that is wrong with the world is because of f*cking you.”
Strickland has never shied away from telling it like he saw it and is a fan favorite of the UFC because of it.
