Sean Strickland has an opinion about the Bryce Mitchell controversy that has dominated recent MMA headlines because, of course he does.
Early in his session with reporters during Tuesday’s media day for his UFC 312 title rematch with Dricus Du Plessis on Saturday at Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney (ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPN2, ESPN+), Strickland took it upon himself to shift gears into the situation involving UFC featherweight Mitchell.
Mitchell sparked outrage this past week when he stated on the inaugural episode of his podcast that he felt Hitler was “a good guy” and someone he would go fishing with. It was all part of a tangent that prompted UFC CEO Dana White to make a public statement condemning the remarks and labeled Mitchell as “one of the dumbest humans.”
