“That guy got a ton a pu**y” - Sean Strickland reacts to viral image of his former look with long hair after fan inquiry

Recently, images of UFC middleweight Sean Strickland have been making the rounds on social media. In these images, which were taken when Strickland was competing down at welterweight in the early stages of his UFC career, he can be seen sporting long, flowy hair.

Fans have commented on just how different his appearance was then, compared to what it is today. One Twitter user, @jimthejimster69 recently shared an older picture of Strickland, alongside the caption"

"Thoughts on this haircut??"

The tweet caught the attention of none other than Sean Strickland himself. The user tagged Strickland, and the Anaheim, California native cheekily replied:

"That guy got a ton of pu**y"

The image was taken from the weigh-ins when Strickland faced Argentinian, Santiago Ponzinibbio in 2015. Unfortunately for Strickland, he was unable to secure the win.

Fans had previously reacted on social media to the picture, and many praised Strickland for how chiseled he looked down at 170. Others complimented his hair and his physical appearance in general. All things considered, Sean Strickland's fighting moniker - 'Tarzan,' certainly suited him more accurately then, rather than now.

Sean Strickland values being a better person more than being with a lot of women

Sean Strickland has kept his love life out of the public realm for the majority of his career. While most of the people around him claim that ‘Tarzan’ is a wonderful human being and an amazing associate in the gym, fans know him as a skilled fighter with controversial conduct in public. The caring side of him came to light for the first time when Strickland was seen sharing a loving moment with his girlfriend in the second episode of UFC 293: Embedded vlog series.

As he told the fan in the Twitter interaction, Strickland feels that he would probably get to be with a lot of women if he ever separated from his girlfriend. However, ‘Tarzan’ truly believes that she has transformed him into a better man and he would never want to be the old version again. The 32-year-old expressed his feelings during an interview with Helen Yee and said:

“I was just telling her this the other day, I tell my girl, I’m like, babe every time I think about breaking up with you and I think about all the p***y I can get, I think about who I was before I met you. As much as I like being single and getting all [redacted] with you guys, my girl she makes me a truly better man and baby, I thank you for that.”
