Former UFC middleweight champion, Sean Strickland, has reaffirmed his ongoing dispute with musician Machine Gun Kelly. The former champion is causing more controversy by ridiculing and taunting MGK on social media. This comes just a day after their confrontation at the Power Slap event.
Taking to Twitter, Strickland continues to mock the celebrity couple, questioning whether he needs to arm himself with wooden stakes and hollow point bullets for self-defense. This provocative post follows an intense exchange of words between Strickland, Fox, and Kelly at the Power Slap event. Here’s what he said:
In his attempt to stir the pot, Strickland compared MGK to a vampire due to his gothic style. He further suggested that Fox and Kelly are merely pretending to be supernatural creatures. Mocking Kelly’s emo rockstar persona, Strickland joked about carrying crosses and stakes.
When someone warned him about MGK’s potential reaction to making fun of Megan, Strickland responded with sarcastic questions about gluing wood chips in hollow points, carrying a crossbow, and buying a wooden stake. He even humorously wondered if this would make him the new Blade.
Strickland is no stranger to controversy, often making insensitive remarks that have alienated his fellow fighters. However, he refuses to filter his opinions, even when it involves baiting celebrities. The intense standoff at the Power Slap event, along with Strickland’s subsequent trolling, suggests that this beef may continue to escalate. While his comments may incite loyal fans of Fox and Kelly, Strickland won’t hesitate to ridicule them online.
The animosity between Sean Strickland and Machine Gun Kelly began when they crossed paths at the Power Slap event in Las Vegas. A video captures Strickland confronting MGK and mocking his appearance at the competition.
In the clip, Strickland can be heard calling MGK “weird” and criticizing his outfit, referring to him as a “vampire man.” This appears to be a mockery of MGK’s goth-inspired style. MGK does not respond in the brief exchange.
Strickland humorously shares his encounter, stating that he almost hit a vampire, referring to MGK, and questioning how someone with a cool name can dress like a goth character from South Park.
While some may find Strickland’s behavior entertaining, his petty feud with MGK is seen by many as mean-spirited and unnecessary. MGK has yet to respond beyond the initial video encounter, likely trying to avoid further confrontation at a public event. However, Strickland seems determined to provoke a response from MGK.
