One of the most controversial MMA fighters in history, Sean Strickland lived up to his status last Wednesday (18). The former middleweight champion (up to 83,9 kg) will be in action this Saturday (21), in the main fight of UFC Houston against anthony hernandezBut he didn't attack her. The bad boy turned all his anger towards Gina Carano and... Ronda Rousey.
Strickland's stance is related to the announcement of the fight between the MMA stars, which took place last Tuesday (17). Previously, the former UFC champion described Gina and Ronda as 'middle-aged women going through menopause', disapproved of the matchmaking and doubted that fans would want to watch it.

At the UFC Houston media day, the bad boy went even further and in an incisive manner. Outraged, 'Tarzan' unleashed a lengthy statement, blasting the duo with rather harsh language and terms. He even criticized women's MMA and the role of women in society. It's worth noting that this wasn't the first time the former UFC champion has shocked fans and professionals with his controversial opinions.
“Ronda and Gina, who would have imagined this? They're going to be half-naked? Maybe that will improve things a little. I don't know. Let's be honest, Ronda can fight. That b**** knows how to fight. She's an Olympic athlete. I think she lost some fights or her ex, but she knew how to fight. Gina was always terrible. I like Gina. She's super conservative and she was hot. When I was a kid and she was fighting, I masturbated thinking about her once or twice during the Strikeforce era. How long ago was that? I was a kid, about 12 years old, and I masturbated. Gina was always kind of bad, she was just hot.”, said the bad boy.
“Back then, women’s MMA was a little worse than it is now, which isn’t saying much. I don’t know. Do you care about Gina and Ronda? No. Nobody cares. Maybe if you put some oil on it and dollar bills on it, people would care. But really, very few people care about women’s MMA. It’s the same thing with the WNBA. Who cares? If you take the weakest, softest man, he’d beat Amanda any day of the week. There’s nothing wrong with women. They do amazing things. They cook, they clean. Women are great. If it weren’t for women and MMA, I’d be in prison.”
“The only thing that stopped me from going to prison, I always say it was MMA, but no, there aren’t women in prison, right? That’s why I didn’t go to prison, knowing I’d have to be surrounded by a bunch of guys for 30 years. I wouldn’t do that. That said, we need to remember what women are excellent at: having children, being mothers, cooking, cleaning the house. The problem is that we empower them too much to ruin society. Most women know this. Most left-leaning women understand that, after they get what they want, they think: ‘Damn it.’”, he concluded.
