Celebrities and UFC fighters rarely have problems with each other. Rapper Machine Gun Kelly and UFC star Sean Strickland initially crossed paths earlier this year at a Power Slap event. Since then, Strickland has frequently bashed the music artist any chance he gets. Recently, MGK finally got the opportunity to hit back at the fighter, only to get roasted further.
During their controversial meeting at the Power Slap event, Strickland called Kelly ‘weird’ and mocked him for his dressing sense. ‘Tarzan’ later took to X and called Kelly a ‘vampire.’ MGK, well-known for his own conflicts, declined to address Strickland’s statements directly. Recently, Kelly did a podcast with Logan Paul and snapped at Strickland for his comments.
Shut the f*** up and don’t speak on me anymore. But you won’t, and I’m going to continue laughing at you because you’re a f****** idiot.

MGK labeled Strickland as an extremely homophobic and racist individual who was not comfortable with his own skin. Up until now, the feud has been one-sided. However, with his recent comments, Kelly has definitely expressed his pent-up annoyance. Nevertheless, it wasn’t the only time MGK had an altercation with a UFC fighter.

Kelly previously confronted Conor McGregor at the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards. During the altercation, McGregor tossed beer at MGK and later stated that he knew nothing about the rapper. Kelly’s girlfriend and actor Megan Fox is an avid MMA fan, which is why the duo attends various UFC events. However, it is safe to conclude that their interactions with fighters have been less than good.
Sean Strickland responds to Machine Gun Kelly’s latest remarks
Sean Strickland is well-known for his unabashed personality and straightforward social media posts. His harsh remarks on the LGBTQ+ community had previously ruffled many feathers. The American fighter recently revealed that Megan Fox sent him a direct message following his encounter with Machine Gun Kelly.

As a result, Strickland apologized to Fox but didn’t shy away from roasting her in the same process. Strickland carried the same energy with his latest response to MGK’s remarks. According to Strickland, ‘blood drinking’ Kelly shouldn’t lecture him online.
Getting lectured by a guy who drinks blood and wears a purse.. Dawg you had a mid life crisis and tattooed your entire body. The “the x community of intolerance” yall I’d hang out with you toxic trolls any day over this cunt… Go back to cutting yourself you fucking weirdo.

Interestingly, Strickland remains the only fighter to have online altercations with numerous celebrities. He recently criticized prominent motivational speaker David Goggins, calling his entire brand a hoax. With that chapter ended, Strickland has now turned his attention to another controversy, as anticipated.
