Sean Strickland directs rant toward UFC champ Justin Gaethje, manager

Sean
Strickland doesn’t like Justin
Gaethje’s manager. 

Strickland (30-7) recently launched an unwarranted tirade on
Gaethje (28-5). The
UFC middleweight champion claims to like Gaethje, but not his
manager, Ali Abdelaziz. Strickland referenced Abdelaziz’s alleged
arrest, followed by allegations of snitching. Strickland says he
will never sign up with Abdelaziz’s management, regardless of how
lucrative the deal is.

Strickland Unleashed

“Let me tell you why Goythje is a bitch,  and it pains me
because I like him,” Strickland wrote on X. “His manager Ali was
arrested for being a f—-ing terrorist then snitched on his
terrorist boys He could offer me a billion dollars to manage me and
[I’d] tell him to get f—ed because I’m an American.”

The feud between the two started in the lead-up to Gaethje’s
lightweight title win over Ilia
Topuria earlier this month at
UFC White House. Strickland was not invited to the event at the
White House. When a fan suggested boycotting the event as
Strickland was not invited, Gaethje strongly opposed the idea of a
boycott. That led to a heated exchange between the two fighters on
social media.
