‘I’m Not Waiting F*cking Six Months to Fight You’- Sean Strickland To Accept Fight Against Derek Brunson On His Own Terms

Posted on by Matt James

UFC middleweight Sean Strickland expressed an interest to face-off against Derek Brunson, who is coming off a loss in his last fight. ‘Tarzan’ was knocked out cleanly in his UFC 276 outing against Alex Pereira, but that hasn’t deterred him from wanting to make a quick return to the octagon.

Strickland revealed that he was already offered a fight against Brunson. However, the veteran middleweight wants to make a comeback after 6 months. This timeline is far too extensive for Strickland and he aggressively urged Derek Brunson to take up a fight against him within the next few months.

“I got a call right, they said Brunson wants to fight you. I’m like ‘f*ck yeah, I’ll make that man f*cking 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 f*cking fruit loops, grab those little f*cking 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.”

True to form, Sean Strickland also went on a comprehensively worded rant about how he wants to be viewed by fans as a premium Maserati car. His strongly worded statements are one of the main reasons UFC fans have anointed him as a fan favorite.

Sean Strickland continued, “…To the fans, I’m in a f*cking Hyundai Accent, this motherf*cker was 16,000 dollars at a six percent f*cking interest rate. I’m trying to get me a Maserati. I don’t even know what a f*cking Maserati looks like, I just know it’s fancy. I ain’t going to get me a f*cking Maserati by waiting six months to fight f*cking baby nut Derek Brunson. So let’s make this s*it happen sooner.” [h/t bjpenn.com]

If Derek Brunson comes out and accepts a fight with Sean Strickland on short order, the MMA community can expect a fight announcement soon.
