White commented on Strickland's harsh statements

UFC CEO Dana White spoke about his attitude towards harsh statements that the former middleweight champion of the promotion quite often allows himself to make. Sean Strickland.

“First of all, I don’t control anyone. We have freedom of speech. It is wrong to control what others say and tell them what to believe. I never do things this way. It's just funny to say that I muzzle someone. People can say whatever they want. Everyone can believe in anything,” the functionary said at a press conference.

Let us remind you that last weekend at the UFC 297 tournament, Strickland lost by a split decision. Dricus Du Plessis and lost his belt.
