Paige VanZant Got Criticized By Sean Strickland Because Of Her OnlyFans Work
Sean Strickland is making sure the public knows his thoughts about former UFC fighter Paige VanZant, and he isn’t holding back when it comes to voicing his unhappiness with her.
Strickland has a reputation for being direct and honest, and he is now feeling very good about his victory over Israel Adesanya to win the middleweight UFC gold belt.

He’s stepping up his content creation now that he’s in the spotlight, and part of that is taking a surprising jab at VanZant, who made a successful transition from her MMA career to that of an OnlyFans model.
Strickland’s recent criticism on X focused on VanZant, who had previously talked about making more money in a single day on OnlyFans than she did during her whole UFC career—which totaled over $500,000. Strickland claimed that the analysis was simple.
“Paige Vanzant said she made more on OnlyFans in 24 hours than she did in the UFC. Let’s unpack,” Strickland made a post on X.

1. You were signed because you're hot.
2. Women's mma is lame.
3. Men will pay more to see you naked than to watch you fight.Stay in school kids, fighting sucks lol

“1. You were signed because you’re hot. 2. Women’s MMA is lame. 3. Men will pay more to see you naked than to watch you fight.
“Stay in school kids, fighting sucks lol.”
VanZant appears to have answered on Sunday, even though she did not mention Strickland directly in her comment for a photo that she shared on social media.

“Have you ever met a hater doing better than you??…. Me neither,” she commented.
Strickland’s criticism has had over 2.7 million impressions on X, so it seems likely that VanZant is responding with a subtly ironic retort. The conversation demonstrates the disagreements among the combatants as well as the influence and scope of social media in spreading these stories.
