Sean Strickland defeated Jack Hermansson by split decision this past Saturday night at UFC Fight Night 200 to notch his sixth consecutive win and get himself closer to a middleweight title shot. Strickland talks a big game and trudges the boundary lines of what’s appropriate. In this case, he was liberal with his anti-gay sentiment during UFC Fight Night 200 media day. At the end of the day, Strickland is winning, but with three consecutive decisions, the results haven’t quite matched the talk. Still, his popularity seems to be growing among MMA fans.
