"Are you talking about Chris Curtis" - Fans refuse to take Sean Strickland's claims of domestic abuse seriously

Sean Strickland is known for his outspoken opinions on a variety of sensitive subjects, including women, homosexuals, and minorities. Fans and other fighters have reacted negatively to his disrespectful comments toward these groups in interviews and on social media. Some have accused him of spreading hate and bigotry through his comments, while others have defended his right to free expression.

The controversial UFC middleweight contender recently made the shocking revelation on Twitter that he has been in an abusive relationship in the past. He said he was physically abused by his former partner because of his infidelity:

"I don't like to talk about this but it's time...I am also a survivor of domestic violence.....I was once in a pretty physical relationship... Physical and verbal abuse... Once I was struck multiple times in the face. FOR NO REASON... besides all the cheating....."
