MMA Fans React As Ex-UFC Champ Sean Strickland Goes On A Massive Rant Against Homeless People – “You Talk Non Sense”

Sean Strickland

Fists often do the talking in MMA, but for Sean Strickland, it’s his words that are causing a stir. Known for his brutal honesty and controversial opinions, ‘Strickland ‘Tarzan’ has once again ignited a firestorm on social media. This time, his target? The homeless population. With his trademark bluntness and a dash of his usual provocative flair, Strickland has thrust himself into the center of a heated debate about homelessness, drug abuse, and societal responsibility.

Strickland took to his X handle on Tuesday to share his thoughts on homelessness. The fighter didn’t mince words, calling homeless individuals derogatory names and questioning public sympathy for them in a series of posts.

“I just don’t understand the love and compassion for homeless people. These people are drugged out zombies.. They’re not down on there luck trying to get better, they’re drug zombies. They bring drugs and crime around your children. Yall need to man up and sack up,” said Strickland.

This isn’t the first time Strickland has courted controversy with his words. His no-filter approach has made him a polarizing figure in MMA. Statistics, however, paint a different picture than Strickland’s claims. According to SAMHSA, only 26% of homeless people abuse drugs. This fact contradicts Strickland’s blanket statement about drug use among the homeless.
