As the world begins to change, many things are now acceptable that were once deemed despicable — but Sean Strickland isn’t sitting in silence.
The 2024 Paris Summer Olympic Games may go down as one of the most controversial in its over 100-year history. Whether you side with their policies or not, it remains true that the backlash the Olympics has received this time around is unlike ever before.
One of the major concerns with this year’s Olympics falls under the women’s boxing event. Many are outraged with the inclusion of Imane Khelif into the women’s game — with most believing that the Algerian is a man, despite conflicting reports. The anger from supporters was only elevated when Khelif dominated a saddened Angela Carini in the ring.
Sean Strickland is the latest to get involved with the online assault on Khelif. The UFC star posted to social media to share his disgust.
“Such an utter disgrace,” Strickland stated. “This is a man, a mentally ill man beating up women.”
“There are 2 genders and that is a man. Never accept this woke corporate agenda”
“Harley Davidson would be proud, one of many companies who support this financially and ideologically.”

However, this wasn’t the last Strickland had to say on the matter.
The former UFC middleweight champion posted a video giving his truth on why Imane Khelif shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near women’s boxing.
“So, guys, what do we know about this boxer? We know this boxer failed a gender test. We know that this boxer was not tested for her/his gender in the Olympics.”

“We know the Olympics gender test consists of, ‘Hey, what does your passport say?’ You can’t blame us for being skeptical of the Olympics after they just f***ing shoved this transgender f***ing cesspool down our f***ing throats.”
“So, yes Olympics, we are a little f***ing skeptical with you. But, let’s give this boxer the benefit of the doubt. Let’s just say that yes, you did fail a gender test and yes, you do have male chromosomes.”
“Yes you were born a woman and you claim to be a woman. Let’s say this happened. You can do anything on this f***ing planet.”
“You can be a f***ing doctor, you can be a lawyer, you can cure f***ing cancer. But what you shouldn’t do, what you can’t do is go and f***ing beat up women. So, just f***ing stop.”
Here's the facts. The Olympics didn't test this boxer for political reasons. This boxer has failed a gender test in the past. The boxer may be intersex.. This situation was created because the Olympics failed their athletes and their fans out of political wokeness. pic.twitter.com/c5fRqGyiny
