UFC middleweight contender Sean Strickland wouldn’t mind fighting Derek Brunson, but it has to be soon.
‘Tarzan’ was last in action at UFC 276 earlier this month against Alex Pereira. In the middleweight contest, Strickland was finished in round one. The defeat from the Brazilian ended a stellar six-fight winning streak for the 31-year-old.
Despite being finished earlier this month, Sean Strickland is already itching to get back in the cage. Earlier today, on his Instagram, the middleweight revealed he had been offered a fight with Derek Brunson. The 38-year-old is coming off a knockout loss to Jared Cannonier in January. According to Strickland, he’s interested in the showdown with Brunson.
However, the return fight wouldn’t happen for another six months. That’s too long for Strickland and would prefer that the bout happens in the next three months. The main reasoning is that the 31-year-old would like to buy a Maserati. Due to that want, he needs the bout to happen soon.
“I got a call right, they said Brunson wants to fight you. I’m like ‘fck yeah, I’ll make that man fcking dance, let’s go. But, they said ‘he called you out, but wants to wait five or six months’. So, Brunson, do me a favor, and do you a favor. Put down the fcking fruit loops, grab those little fcking baby nuts you’ve got, hold them up, and shave off two to three months. I’m not waiting f*cking six months to fight you. I’m sure Jared [Cannonier] will fight me next month.”
Sean Strickland continued, “…To the fans, I’m in a fcking Hyundai Accent, this motherfcker was 16,000 dollars at a six percent fcking interest rate. I’m trying to get me a Maserati. I don’t even know what a fcking Maserati looks like, I just know it’s fancy. I ain’t going to get me a fcking Maserati by waiting six months to fight fcking baby nut Derek Brunson. So let’s make this s*it happen sooner.”
Why isn’t he paying cash?
Broke ass bitch
Didn’t Brunson retire after the loss to Cannonier?
I’m very confused. I thought he had lots of money from a settlement. Why didn’t he pay cash??
I’m retiring because I feel too good…and if I just keep doing it, eventually there’s going to be a decline.Feb 9, 2022
