UFC CEO Dana White isn’t about to try and filter Sean Strickland or anybody else on the roster.
Strickland went viral on social media during UFC 297 fight week after going on an anti-LGBTQ rant during media day in Toronto. He verbally attacked a reporter who asked him about past comments he’d made.
A heavy advocate for free speech, White defended Strickland and said the reporter baited him by asking about his stance on the LGBTQ community. Using the likes of Tyron Woodley and Colby Covington as examples, White says the UFC provides a platform that allows anyone to express themselves the way they want to.
