Dillon Danis taunts Sean Strickland over response to Jon Anik's comments on MMA fanbase

Sean Strickland recently criticized Jon Anik for his remarks about a portion of MMA fans who inundated him with negative comments following the UFC 297 event last weekend. However, Dillon Danis came to Anik's defense and taunted 'Tarzan' for his viewpoints.

During a recent episode of The Anik & Florian Podcast, Anik addressed the backlash he faced on social media for favoring Dricus du Plessis in his scoring of the UFC 297 main event.

Following a five-round battle, du Plessis clinched the 185-pound title with a split-decision victory over champion Strickland.

The UFC play-by-play commentator expressed his fatigue from the ongoing influx of negative feedback from MMA fans. Anik also confessed to being deeply impacted by the response and contemplated leaving the MMA scene to pursue opportunities in the NFL.

Strickland expressed his disdain for Anik's comments about MMA fans, suggesting that the UFC broadcaster's livelihood is supported by the same fans.

Danis disagreed with Strickland's remarks about Anik and commented on the former middleweight champion's post to highlight his sensitivity:

"Coming from the guy who cried and threatened murder because someone made fun of you."
