Former UFC middleweight champion, Sean Strickland, should be considered an expert in several fields, like cage fighting, masturbation, and murder.
His boorish (but inexplicably popular) “lolol look how crazy I am!” shtick would likely make for an entertaining podcast on its own, but “Tarzan” is hoping to up the ante with the addition of UFC featherweight Bryce Mitchell.
You may remember Mitchell from such headlines as, “Help, I power-drilled my own nuts” and “Fishing with Hitler would be so cool, yo.”
“I just think Bryce has way more support than people want to admit,” Strickland wrote in his Instagram stories. “I just wanna unpack it a little … as a curious friend. There is just so much to talk about. Flat earth, God, dragons. Big fan of this man! Should me and ‘Thug Nasty’ do a podcast?”
Strickland, who turns 34 in just a few days, is coming off a decisive (and excuse-laden) loss to Dricus Du Plessis in the UFC 312 main event, another performance where “Tarzan” over-promised and underdelivered.
He’s also the same fighter who threatened to rape a fellow middleweight contender.
UFC once enforced its Code of Conduct but appears to have abandoned any attempts to promote responsible behavior; which in turn, helped amplify the anti-gravity voices of flat-earth fools like Mitchell.
Strickland’s podcast pitch just goes to show that misery does, in fact, love company.
