Sean deserves a second Performance Of The Night bonus for making it through this entire segment without saying anything insane
💯
He had practice with the backstage interviews. He got his insanity off there and came tamed for the official one 😂
He was still swearing and made sexist comments right in front of the woman about the way girls throw a baseball. 😂
Yupp, he was very PC this time, it's astonishing.
Facts, he kept it pg for once.
just because your name is Magomedov doesnt mean you are unbeatable lol
Mate Strickland was literally the favorite.
Yes it does 😂
I just won 5k on Strickland ,
@@rocketic8462 there were a lot of people saying abus will take him down and smash him easily
Strickland was the favorite and he was 1-0 against a 45-60 boxer
I want Sean to be at commentator. It'd be so entertaining
😂😂😂😂 on spike TV?
Ufc would get cancelled immediately 😂😂
@@Anonymous-rz6vq I'm here for that one day. I don't know if it lasted day but it was still be great
@@eddievargas704too risky for even spike lmfao
Are you out of your mind
His expression when he realized he earned the bonus was priceless
I can't get of the fact that he sounds like charls dera
@@TheArsenalMan125 I kinda hear it 😭😭
@@TheArsenalMan125 💀💀
Is that 50k or 100k now?
@@Njvghvvnn 50k for POTN. FOTN was Guram vs Elves
Sean is 18-2 in his division with a controversial loss.
Give the man a title fight.
18-2 in middleweight?
Let alone ufc middleweight? Lol
what are you talking about If he was 18-2 he wouldve fought for the title twice. Lmao
At middleweight. Not just in the ufc.
@@Nameplease12blacknobility Well he's 27 - 5 which is still crazy
Sean's humility is underrated.
Regardless of his spicy takes, it’s very hard to not like & appreciate Sean. Congrats man, you deserve it!!!
I respect that he's genuine. That's just who he is. He's rigid, abrasive, and tough but you know somewhere in there is a nice guy.
You’re definitely a liberal
@@STATOSHIjust because someone isn’t conservative doesn’t mean they’re beta lol
@@kvk3315yeah it does groomer
@@kvk3315if what you’ve got out of Sean is that he’s a conservative then ur lost dude
Sean is the most humble, self depricating pro-fighter I've even seen/heard.
Also, he's quite greatful to have the blessing to make as extravagant a living doing what he's so good at. He gave his fans/haters the greatest compliment there is. He said, "I wouldn't have a paycheck, were it not for all of you."
What a genuine man!
The glazing is crazy😭
Humble...lol
@heisenberg9739 Well...he's humble in his own special way.
But humble nontheless!
That is a borderline insane take. Delusional is the only word I can think of.
@@OhCrxzeh Thats the least fitting word. He sees things how they are.
That made my night seeing him win like that and then him get the bonus 👊💯
what bonus? he got paid flat. he might get the locker bonus lol
oh he did get a bonus. i thought you meant a win bonus. good for him, he can really give more money to his friends cancer fund
What a character and a very good fighter with a unique style
not really a unique style, he's a pressure fighter, mainly a volume boxer who can also grapple, similar to the Diaz Bros
@@MrRobjs83 he gets hit the least in middleweight… he’s the opposite of diaz
Best presser of all time I hope they make the right choice
@@MrRobjs83 he has kind of a unique spin on the pressure fighter style though. He stands there and lulls his opponents into joining his pace and then he beats them in that pace. His biggest weakness seems to be leg/body kicks though.
nick was a better fighter though
LOL there was a cut in the video at about 1:40. Sean probably said something that the network didn't like 😂
Espn soyboy
Good catch lol
@@bunnyban5365Yeah, he probably said something like, "Obesity is unhealthy".
He was hitting on Alan Jouban and referenced the fact that pride month just passed. They cut out other stuff too.
@@AA-ig9re I wish we could see the footage lmfao
You know why we all gravitate towards Sean? Because he's 100% authentic. Agree with him or not, it's hard not to like someone who's this real in a world of fakes and charlatans.
Wow! Sean just summarized it perfectly; people just existing and waiting to die vs challenging their fears and 'balling out'
well scripture says "rejoice, be merry, and enjoy the fruits of your labour" so kinda what were supposed to do but every individual has a higher purpose and ambition, to be satisfied , so cheers
It doesn’t even matter what Sean’s saying, it’s just authentic, which in turn is soooo refreshing!
Sean Strickland is the character Covington thinks he plays
Covington is my #2 guy, but yeah Sean is the real deal. There's no one else like him.
Sean is as real as it gets. "It's the only time I feel ike I'm not waiting to die!"Sean Strickland
Please talk to someone, man. A friend, a loved one, counselor, anyone, just find someone to help you through whatever's overwhelming you.
@@hankthetank8039 is address for me? I was merely repeating what Sean said!!!!🤔
I'm living my best life! 😎
@hankthetank8039 ngga chill
Im just waiting to go to the upper room! But i don't mind it. I'm just going with the flow. There's nothing wrong with that :).
@@Mr--H i believe that after we die, our energy, spirit, or consciousness whatever you want to call it continues to exist. We are human beings having a spiritual experience, we are spiritual beings having a human experience!!!!I 🙏🙏🙏
We gotta see that Strickland and Adesanya press conference 🤣🤣🤣 and the fight gonna be super heated as well 🔥🔥🔥
if it's in australia sean will say the n word and c word repeatedly
Adesanya wil start crying and run from the rom with the nailpolish and skirt on. 😂🤣🤣
The fight won’t be heated at all. Sean gets put to sleep first round
Izzy would dominate the whole fight
Sean will totally win the trash talk... But once in the cage... I don't see him touching the champ once.
The biggest argument for a Steickland title fight is he probably has the best record in the top 10 and hasnt fought Izzy
Izzy is the worst match up possible for him, literally a pointless fight
@@Ollie121299OnPC no doubt, Sean eats leg kicks instead of checking them most of the time, dudes gonna get a whole Chinese buffet.
He beat two scrubs he couldn’t get past Canonier or Peiera he needs to fight Vettori or the loser of the Whittaker Du Plessis fight Izzy would destroy this guy
hmmmmmmmm izzy got destroyed lol@@svdagoat7972
@@svdagoat7972 🤣
He was levels above. Abus had no stamina even for 3 rounds.
He didn’t have it for 2 rounds ffs
He even had a 3 minutes rest after the eye poke yet he gassed as soon as the 2nd round started. Embarrassingly bad gas tank.
Hes not fighter were are his Wiki?
@@Melia_67 worse even, he was already gassing at the end of the first. Could see it in the body language. Sean was gonna take over and it already happened in the 2nd
Part of it was he was getting pressured and walked down most of the fight, circling backwards and fighting off the back foot is tiring even if you win a round doing it. Sean strikes like a 185 Colby with the volume and pressure, and with a good jab to disrupt the opponents rhythm.
It is so fkn cool to see this man earn all this money 😂😂 what's best is how he is super grateful he's just a real dude probably the realest on the roster tbh
That’s something I notice about Strickland. Colby Covington and Sean Strickland might have similar spicy takes sometimes, but Colby comes off fake which makes him unlikeable, while Sean has never said anything fake as is just unapologetically himself.
@@nymphimaniac Colby is likeable if you're in on the joke he's doing as his character
I like Sean Strickland he has a realistic look on what doing more then just waking up and being regular “it gives me a purpose” facts
this dude the real BMF
Hasn't beat a top 5 lol, won against Jared but got robbed
@@kelvin4910 as fought multiple unranked guys as top5 and top10, instead of waiting in the sideline for any title shots. That's what I mean
Sean is the consummate pro, saying what he needs to say to be the heel and embracing it fully. Smart guy, I hope he's saving his money well and can retire comfortably at the end of it all.
I don't think he's a heel, he's more of an anti-hero, and I appreciate that.
Sean is a real one, doesnt accept cancel culture and will call it out in the process. Fair play to the hard working editor too lol.
I mean honestly… if they want Izzy to fight in September & if Du Plessis & Whittaker take too much damage for a quick turnaround I could see them putting Sean in there.
Wouldn’t have a problem with that either,great presser plus who else is there ?
At a minimum they can do Strickland vs DDP after he losses to Whittaker
@@RaffSolis but Izzy wants to defend in Australia in September… so they need someone quick that’s what I was getting at.
@@RaffSoliswho would izzy fight then? Or would he just wait and why would Shawn wait missing the hole point 🤦♂️
I mean honestly, if Whittaker wins and takes a little bit of damage Strickland would still make sense vs Izzy.
Whittaker has had 2 shots at Izzy already.
Cannonier got his chance already and most people think Strickland won that fight.
Just give Strickland the title shot and then we can go back to Whittaker.
I think we all know Izzy beating Strickland anyway lol.
Am genuinely happy for this guy and he’s a grateful dude, well deserved man 😊
So happy for Sean! Just a real man who is a fighter through and through. ❤
Sean is a real fighter, real fighters aren't undefeated, real fighters take losses and keep moving!
Well said brotha well said 🤌🏽
Y’all both stupid
This man has a heart of gold.
Sean is basically undefeated at 185 aside from the pereira fight so I could see him getting a title fight
So he basically lost but is undefeated lol..
He lost to Cannonier
@@SarKa02 was a bad decision tho
@@SarKa02 that was robbery
Yeh only the old champ really beat him that’s it. Izzy now would be great. Rob sit out and go at the winner
2024 Sean Strickland - main event - UFC International Fight Week - Vegas - week of July 4th - please please please
Sean lost :(
@@richardhambel648 ???
He's one of my favorite fighters
And it happened
This interview hits different now that he’s the champion
How can anyone dislike Strickland. He's a sweetheart🙏❤
he's becoming a star
THE GOD SEAN
Sean is humble man and a professional fighter and deserves the best.
Anybody else get nervous when Sean hits the desk? 😅
Please UFC. Don't cut Sean ever. This guy makes this sport awesome to watch. Mr. Strickland is a great entertainer
Sean was precise with his strikes, always on target.
Sparing with Poatan Sean becomes smart suddenly😂
@@luckie9227 Had nothing to do with sparring Alex, Sean just went out and did what he always does. Patient, great defense, picks his shots, gets his opponent hurt then swarms them with clean combos until they quit or get finished.
@@charlesbrown4483 nope he had no footwork prior. He already admitted that. His shot selection also improved.
I love this dude and really grew to appreciate him more after last nights win what a good dude
Izzy predicted sean to win easily and he was right
Everyone did
@@mpforeverunlimited he looked solid in the first round bro woulda been a good fight
@Rexxor394 abus def hit hard but Sean sparr so much and he wasn't even throwing first round, literally just jab to test out the guy. Took him like 10 seconds in the 2nd round break abus. Ufc rushed it for abus
@@mpforeverunlimited not me, Izzy called it
@@mpforeverunlimited Pains you that much to see anything remotely positive about Israel, huh?
Congratulations Sean Strickland!! Big win 👏👏👏👏 Such a cool guy, happy for him 😊
Strickland is so much fun, just such a personality where I just can’t help but cheer for him.
seans legit becoming one of my favorite fighters hes always entertaining
Being a goof is a bit of a facade looking past it mans humble asf and understands who he is and is appreciating of what he has and never gives himself to much credit alotta people can learn from him.
SEAN STRICKLAND IS SO FUN TO WATCH I LOVE THIS GUY!!!
fighters like sean are needed in the ufc 👏🏻👏🏻
love to see him win, brings great joy!
Protect Sean at all cost❤
Sean Strickland is not crazy or sth. He is just open honest raw. we are so used to fake behaviour....
Love this guy. Was so happy when he got the finish. Congrats sean, i can tell how hard he worked
“Well then you prabably throw harder than me”😂
Sean Strickland is the most interesting fighter hands down and the UFC need to put him in more PPV big press conference's he always makes it worth watching. Well played Sean good win onto the next.He quit for sure Abus he was looking done after 1 round.
Has a true fighting spirit and speaks his mind without fearing criticism. Real American, nothing but respect to Strickland
Please give Sean the title shot! Is going to be so entertaining I can't wait to see it
Love this guy he’s a national treasure
So good to see Sean get the win. I’m so happy for him.
You have to love this man. I love his simplicity
So happy for Sean dude is the realist dude in the game right now
Not gonna lie, i hated this guy a few years ago but he def grew on me. Congrats on the win bro and keep going man!
I love Sean. hes so real
You're an inspiration Sean, got my road shoes on went did a couple miles today after watching you.
Bro Strickland did the 180 in like 2 days and became super like able and relatable 😂
Went the Paulo Costa route. Get so delusional that you become liked😂😂😂
Costa will expose Aliskerov, Sandhagen will beat Umar
I'm rooting for Aliskerov at this point. I used to be a massive Costa fan but if he's only going to fight once a year I'd rather he be kicked out of the rankings. How you beat Romero then lose to Vettori
Your fuvking costa get kill by Ikram and Umar killed your sandyyygen..
Got to see his serious perspective side at 3:23, whether this is all just some character he’s doing or this is who he really is, that assessment of what fighting as a career was for real.
“It’s the only time I feel like I’m not waiting to die”
was badass and needs to be a shirt!
Well done Strickland on the real, didn't always like you as a UFC fan, but in past couple years, regardless of crazy talk, definitely won me over, I'm a big fan Brojangles, rooting for you tonight, glad to see ya get hand raised well deserved Bro Diddly...took care of business for sure
If Sean doesn’t get a title shot he should get a fight with Vettori.
Love the honesty on Strickland
One of my favourite people let’s go Sean!!
I like how Sean stays in his fight kit for all the post fight media instead of putting on clothes lmao
He’s always in his fight kit lol even practice interviews
His nickname used to be Caveman lol
Get em DeSean
I always liked Sean but this interview really won me over!
Dude is real!
Really good job joking around pure gold for ufc and him
Sean is the man we need more Sean Stricklands
A woke media person's nightmare... Having sean on their show😂
Genuine dude love to see it
I just love that guy man…
Sean reminds me somewhat of Colby Covington with his striking and cardio
Him and Colby both have that forward pressure that slowly breaks people’s spirit. His cardio and striking defense are his best attributes
Colby implements way more kicks
Stop it Sean has way better striking than Covington Lmao what
End of the day, I find it hard to believe Sean being able to handle Izzy. Izzy is better than him in everything but trash talk lmao.
His striking is elite, and he's got legit knockout power and if Alex put away Sean, Izzy's going to do the same to Sean. Izzy's fight IQ is on a different level as well. Sean can get the title shot, but he's not getting that title though, not against Izzy.
Yeah I think most of us just want to see Sean insult Adesanya and make him look bad 😂😂 win or lose
@@stefanm2731 going to be the other way round mate. He'll get picked apart and probably knocked out.
@@eshanthaperera I know he'll win but Strickland embarrassing Izzy at the presser will be worth it
@@stefanm2731 No arguments there lmao. Sean's mouth has no brakes.
aged like milk
never had anything against sean but now i like him. love seeing the human side of people
Finally, things are starting to work out for him.
God bless!
Not going to give credit to your coach Curtis for literally giving you the gameplan after that first round?
He did
@@grentech3435at what part?
@@clipz7561 2:40
@@grentech3435he did not say anything about the advice he gave him he just said he knows what type of fighter I am

It's as unlikely as Sean winning
dude i love sean fight talk everything
what a raw force of nature. you can never put sean strickland into a category, he is just not fitting anywhere and will push anyone to his limits and always tests limits of anyone interacting with him. I mean look how he comes in, jabs everyone in the faces and then sits as close as possible to that strong lady, staring at her body. But i dont judge him in any way.. probably he is.. what we need?
Solid dude. Keeps it real. Especially after the fights.
Sean Strickland is proving his doubters wrong. Some said that he'd struggle against Imavov but Sean came out on top. Just a few days ago many especially on social media were picking Magomedov to win & again Sean came out on top.
actually genuinely happy for this man
How can you not support Strickland. Dude talks from the heart and means what he says and is an absolute dog, with a warrior mentality.
I like this version of him way better, I could be a fan💯
That's why I love Strickland super honest!
Sean is as real as it gets. Love it. No fake bs with him. He's definitely crazy but I'm a fan for sure.
When is the last time you hear a fighter honestly and genuinely saying ‘ I don’t hit that hard I need to throw a lot of punches to break it down my opponent’ lol Sean is the Man .
I like Sean when he is more serious and chill like this, without constantly telling jokes and trying to be funny.
