“Sorry, Megan” – Sean Strickland leaks DMs with Megan Fox Weeks as ugly feud with MGK takes a new turn

Former UFC Middleweight Champion Sean Strickland is known not only for his martial arts skills, but also for his controversial statements outside the Octagon. After defeating Abus Magomed, he sparked outrage by making misogynistic comments about women in MMA, saying: “We need to get women back into the kitchen. It’s enough if one man works for it…” These comments sparked sharp criticism from women who condemned Strickland's thinking.

Later, Strickland also accused Megan Fox and her partner, musician Machine Gun Kelly (MGK), of being part of a satanic cult. Thought the controversy was over? Strickland recently revisited the topic in an interview and revealed new details about their feud.

Sean Strickland was recently a guest on the renowned YouTube podcast Versus Us with Eric Nicksick, where he discussed various topics related to current developments in the MMA world. The conversation then shifted to the question of Harley-Davidson endorsing MGK, which eventually led to Megan Fox. When the podcast host asked Strickland about the matter, he revealed that the matter is not as flattering as it seems. He said: “Megan Fox sent me a direct message. I was like, 'Oh, celebrity level.' Yeah, and it wasn't that kind of direct message.”

When asked further about the reason behind Megan Fox's direct message, Strickland revealed his previous tweet attacking Megan Fox's lifestyle and clothing, which resulted in a traumatic experience for Megan Fox's children. Strickland stated: “The message was actually pretty shitty, pretty shitty. It was more like, 'Hey, you know what, my kids are getting bullied and I'm getting bullied online because you said they're trans when they're not trans. They just want to dress like rock stars, and I'm like, 'Sorry, Megan, I'm going to shut the fuck up now.'”
