UFC Champion Sean Strickland Puts "Con Artist" Andrew Tate On Blast

Strickland is not a fan of Tate.

UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland has an unexpected take on Andrew Tate.

Strickland has been known to speak his mind. The newly-minted 185-pound titleholder has no filter when he talks about a variety of topics, including his own childhood trauma and his view on women. Given his lack of fear to say things as he views them, some felt that Strickland would quite fond of a personality such as Tate.

Tate, a former kickboxer, has garnered a huge following online due to his strong red pill ideology, although he has even called out members of that community, as well as accusations of being a pimp who exploits young women. Back in August, Tate was released from house arrest in Romania as he awaits trial for rape and human trafficking charges.

Those who were expecting Strickland to back Tate were in for a rude awakening. Strickland appeared on the Full Send Podcast and made it clear he's not a fan of Tate.

"Here's the thing about Andrew Tate, as young men I could see why you guys look up to him because you are moralless men," Strickland said. "You have no values, you have no positive male role models. So, you latch onto a piece of s*** like Tate, who has money, who has women."

Strickland labeled Tate a "con artist" for supposedly pretending to be a webcam model and stealing money from other men. The UFC champion is more so bothered that Tate doesn't own up to it.

"To see the way he talked with no remorse, it wasn't, 'You know what, man? I did something so morally wrong. I took advantage of men, I took money from men,' it was like, 'No, f*** them. I'm a con artist, I'm a piece of s***.' So, Andrew Tate, you guys, if you want to look up to a guy, look up to a guy like Jordan Peterson. He understands masculinity, honesty, how to be a f****** man, but I'm telling you, Andrew Tate, he's not your messiah. He would turn you out for a dollar. He's a f****** pimp, he's a w****."
