Sean Strickland tears ‘China’s little slut’ Israel Adesanya apart in Joe Rogan interview: ‘Izzy just f*cking sucks’

The MMA world was abuzz as outspoken and often-controversial middleweight contender Sean Strickland made an appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience this week. Needless to say, ‘Tarzan’ did not disappoint as he delivered his own unique take on a series of taboo subjects.

His appearance on the popular podcast comes days removed from his second-round TKO against Dagestani standout Abus Magomedov at UFC Vegas 76 on Saturday night. Scoring his second-straight win, the No. 7 ranked contender is eyeing a potential showdown with reigning middleweight world champion Israel Adesanya. While speaking with Rogan, Strickland had mostly negative things to say about ‘The Last Stylebender,’ specifically noting the champ’s ties to China.
