UFC middleweight Sean Strickland has had his Twitter account suspeneded after a series of tweets were deemed to have violated the platform's rules.
The joint No.4 contender has been preparing for a fight with Alex Pereira in July, but always makes time to post his outlandish political and social takes on Twitter. Fans love Strickland's unique brand of posting, but it will be no more after his account was blocked following comments about guns and the transgender community.
Strickland has become known in recent years for his outlandish outbursts both on social media and at press events leading up to UFC fights. He has come under fire for previous comments about gay people and other groups, although he is generally playing up his persona for laughs and shock value.
