Former UFC middleweight kingpin Sean Strickland was recently spotted hanging out with American rapper and actor Robert Matthew Van Winkle aka Vanilla Ice. The MMA reporter Nina-Marie Daniele has now reacted to this union.
Outside the octagon, Strickland is an adventurer and biker who enjoys performing motorbike stunts.
In the past, 'Tarzan' has also had a motorcycle accident that left him unconscious and he had several injuries. However, that does not stop him from seeking out adrenaline by going on rides and performing stunts.
Strickland most recently went to a Monster Energy Supercross. At the venue, he ran across rapper Vanilla Ice who is also a motorhead like the UFC fighter.

Ice has learned to ride motorbikes from a tender age. In 1985, he also won three motocross championships. However, when Ice broke his ankle during a race, he was not interested in professional racing for some time.
Presently, the rapper also has a dream garage like Strickland with some of the fastest machines in the world.
Sean Strickland tries to pull off a wheelie but fails
Ahead of UFC 312, Sean Strickland was spotted outside his residence, showing off his machines parked outside the house. 'Tarzan' also revved the bikes a few times.
Next up, on his green motorcycle, Strickland tried to pop a wheelie, which was a failed attempt as he fell from the bike. However, the UFC fighter got up and tried to drift on the same machine, displaying his biking skills.
After the failed wheelie, 'Tarzan' said:
"Motorcycles are fun because they are fu**ing scary."
