UFC Star Sean Strickland Can't Wait to See Elon Musk 'Gut the Governement'

Sean Strickland is never one to shy away from sharing his political beliefs, even when nobody asked for them.

Recently, the former UFC middleweight titleholder chimed in on the ongoing debate between corporate greed and government corruption in response to a post from Hannah D. Cox, a libertarian-conservative writer, activist, and commentator who acts as the Content Manager and Brand Ambassador for the Foundation for Economic Education.

“Crazy concept….. You’re both bad….. Billionaires “government is bad” Government “Billionaires are bad” Two bad guys pointing the finger at each other saying “he’s the bad guy not me” lmao @elonmusk,” Strickland wrote.

Strickland’s statement led one user online to suggest that the UFC star may be having second thoughts about not voting for Democratic nominee Kamala Harris during November’s presidential election.

“You regret not voting for Kamala?” @RickyKay2020 questioned.

“Not one f*cking bit…… I can’t wait for Elon to gut the government,” Strickland snapped back.

Sean Strickland looks to reclaim middleweight title at UFC 312

After surrendering the 185-pound title to Dricus Du Plessis in January 2024, Strickland will have to chance to retake the title on February 8 when he runs it back with the South African at UFC 312 in Perth, Australia.

‘Tarzan’ came up on the wrong side of a closely contested and somewhat controversial split decision against Du Plessis in their first meeting. Since then, Strickland has bounced back with a solid showing against Paul Costa in June. That proved enough to solidify his spot as the division’s top-ranked contender, netting him a rematch with ‘DDP.’

Du Plessis followed up his title-winning performance against Strickland by handing Israel Adesanya his first career submission loss at UFC 305.

Bryce Mitchell Blasts Elon Musk: Flat Earth, Gay Teslas, and Crushing Cars

Days away from his return to the Octagon, featherweight standout Bryce Mitchell unleashed another unhinged rant directed at Elon Musk.

After suffering one of the most horrific knockouts in UFC history last year, ‘Thug Nasty’ steps back onto MMA’s biggest stage this Saturday night for a scrap with Kron Gracie at the promotion’s final pay-per-view event of 2024.

Making the media rounds ahead of fight night, Mitchell wasn’t exactly interested in talking about his fight or what he’s been up to since his last fight. Instead, Mitchell spouted more crazy conspiracy theories about the earth being flat, Elon Musk paving the way for the antichrist and the sexual orientation of Tesla-brand cars.

“I’m telling you, that is the type of technology that the anti-Christ is going to put in people — when you start getting these chips in the head, they’re going to monitor everything you buy, everything you sell… Basically, it’s going to be communism like the world has never seen,” Mitchell said on the Believe You Me podcast with Michael Bisping and Paul Felder.

“When you see a guy like Elon Musk putting chips in people’s brains, acting like he’s a doctor — his cars suck, he’s never been to space, he knows the Earth is flat and he’s a lying rat bastard” (h/t Bloody Elbow).

Bryce Mitchell really doesn’t like electric cars

It’s far from the first time Mitchell has targeted the Tesla Motors CEO for a variety of reasons, but ‘Thug Nasty’ seems to be especially frustrated by the insurgence of electric cars that gives people like Musk more power over the technology they’re developing and putting out into the world.

“The reason he’s making electric cars is because he can shut your damn car off whenever you make a mean tweet… They’re going to get to the point where everything is so controlled that Elon Musk can press a button and you’re locked in it, or you just can’t start your car.

“You can’t do that with a 1997 Ford pickup truck, buddy… My ‘73 will run one of those pieces of sh*t Tesla’s off the road and crush it like a can of Coke — I’m just telling you.”

Mitchell is 7-2 under the UFC banner. He started his run with the promotion going 6-0 but has since fallen in two of his last three, including losses against reigning featherweight world champion Ilia Topuria and heavy-hitting Josh Emmett.

UFC Star Roasts Donald Trump and Elon Musk: Questions Their 'Masculine' Image

While many UFC fighters support three-time GOP nominee Donald Trump, one has been outspoken about his disdain for the former POTUS.

Chris Curtis has been fairly hush-hush regarding his political beliefs in recent years. However, all that appears to have changed after his friendship with far-right-leaning UFC star Sean Strickland came to a crashing halt over their differing worldviews.

Since then, ‘The Action Man’ has been more than willing to vent his frustration with the Republican agenda and take a few shots at Trump on social media.

Recently, Curtis shared images from a recent Trump rally that featured one of the convicted felon’s wealthiest supporters, Telsa Motors CEO and the Sultan of SpaceX, Elon Musk.

“All that talk about athletic masculine dudes…” Curtis wrote on X.

UFC Fans snap back at Chris Curtis

While there were plenty of fight fans who appreciated Curtis’ dig at Trump and Musk, one was quick to remind ‘The Action Man’ that a majority of the UFC fanbase is made up of conservatives.

Chris Curtis

“Such a bad play for you growing your brand. Read the room, man,” one user on X replied. “The whole UFC fanbase is opposite your position. Are you trying to change their minds or are you trying to grow your business? Cuz regardless of how hard you try, only the latter is possible.”

Of course, not everyone in the comments expressed as much couth as the above user.

Chris Curtis

“I wish I would have laughed more when you were getting all them f*cking no contests and losses,” another added. “Can’t wait till the next time you get knocked the fuck out and I get to watch. You’ll always be a journeyman getting middling pay for your middling personality. I used to be a fan…

Chris Curtis is 3-3 in his last six outings with 1 no-contest. That came against Nassourdine Imavov at UFC 289 due to an accidental clash of heads three minutes into the second round. ‘The Action Man’ is scheduled for a scrap with Roman Kopylov at a Fight Night event on January 11.

UFC Legend Slams Elon Musk over Donald Trump Support: “Bulls*** … Bro you are POS.”

Frank Shamrock UFC Legend Slams Elon Musk over Donald Trump Support: "Bulls*** ... Bro you are POS."

The UFC legend Frank Shamrock has taken aim at Elon Musk over his brazen support for Donald Trump, a presidential candidate in the upcoming US election.

Frank Shamrock

The legendary Frank Shamrock is a pioneer of Mixed Martial Arts and competed in the sport well before it was even named MMA. He began his professional career in 1994 and quickly made a name for himself as one of the first complete mixed martial artists. Shamrock transitioned from a ground-focused approach to a more versatile game that included striking and grappling techniques. The Mexican-American fighter was a trailblazer in both Pancrase and the UFC.

After going through the prison and foster care system in the USA, martial arts saved his life.

Shamrock became the first-ever UFC Middleweight Champion. During his impressive reign, he was ranked as the top pound-for-pound fighter in the world. His professional record boasts notable victories against opponents such as Tito Ortiz, who he defeated in one of the greatest fights in UFC history.

In addition to his UFC success, Shamrock won titles in other major organizations, including the WEC, Pancrase, and Strikeforce. He became the first fighter to hold championships across all these major promotions.

However, Shamrock has not been inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame, despite being one of the clear and best picks for an entry. This is largely due to differences of opinion he has had with the organization’s president Dana White.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump

Initially, Elon Musk was critical of Trump, stating in 2016 that he believed Trump was “not the right guy” for the presidency and later distancing himself from the administration over environmental policy disagreements. However, their relationship began to shift when Trump appointed Musk to two economic advisory councils after winning the presidency. This collaboration was short-lived, as Musk resigned from these councils in 2017 in protest of Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement.

Their relationship has taken a more amicable turn, with Musk endorsing Trump for the 2024 presidential election shortly after an assassination attempt on Trump. In August 2024, Musk even indicated his willingness to join Trump’s cabinet if asked.

On X, formerly Twitter, Frank Shamrock responded to Elon Musk who was spreading fear-mongering information regarding migrants. Shamrock said:

“No bro. That’s the bullsh*t. You need to get off that Trump ball sack.”

He later added:

“Bro you are pos for sucking that’s mans nuts.”

On Donald Trump overall, Shamrock explained:

“Guy makes zero sense and spreads hate and fear. I want policy and support for our people. We are all Americans! That’s what a true leader does.”

Bryce Mitchell and Sean Strickland Take a Ride in the Tesla Model S: "Going to lose your fanbase."

Sean Strickland and Bryce Mitchell occupying the same space is the stuff nightmares are made of.

Though both fighters have strung together a pair of very successful careers in the world of mixed martial arts, their socio-political commentaries have often overshadowed the accomplishments they’ve made inside the Octagon.

Bryce Mitchell and Sean Strickland

Recently, ‘Thug Nasty’ revealed in a post on social media that he hitched a ride with the former UFC middleweight champion following a hard day of training in Las Vegas.

Mitchell claimed that he was “riding in style” alongside “a friend and an American legend” while barreling down the streets of Las Vegas in Strickland’s Tesla Model S.

It’s a little surprising that Mitchell would even step foot into Strickland’s $40,000 luxury ride considering earlier this year, he dubbed Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk a “false prophet” who would bring about the coming of the Antichrist. And just for good measure, ‘Thug Nasty’ told Musk to “kiss his ass” and “take that Cybertruck to hell where it belongs.”

Strickland hilariously reminded Mitchell of his past comments, adding: “Bro, this is a Tesla. You’re going to lose your fan base.”

It’s not the first time Sean Strickland and Bryce Mitchell have crossed paths

This isn’t the first time Strickland and Mitchell have crossed paths. Earlier this year, ‘Tarzan’ shared a video online of him and the Arkansas native.

“I’m here with my boy Bryce. Man, he is one of the real ones. This man bleeds red, white, and blue. We’re talking about the government, taxation, overthrowing it. Let’s f*cking go! America first, let’s go.”

You just know that someday, these two are going to collaborate on the most absurd podcast of all time and we’re all going to listen.
