"We only sparred once, and I think we did a three-round spar. We sparred once. When I go to a gym, I want to spar the best guy. I want to spar him. But he would always go beat up the lower level guys."
"I don't think he gives a f*ck, does he? How did this even get started? Oh, I know how it got started, he said something about jumping me. He made a joke about 'oh my friends would jump you.' And I said 'dude you're a f*cking coward, I'm a grown-ass man.'"
"At no point in my life have I ever said 'I'm going to jump this man.' To me, to say that and look myself in the mirror after saying that and saying that I'm going to threaten you with my gang, it kind of makes me feel like a p*ssy."
"Not in Jersey, because we're in a f*cking communist state, but in Vegas, if I walk outside and there's three f*cking Chechens, I legally can put a f*cking bullet in each and every one of them."
Sean Strickland minimizes the significance of his rivalry with Khamzat Chimaev, noting they only sparred once. He describes their upcoming fight as a good and fun matchup. Strickland dismisses the back-and-forth banter between them, particularly Chimaev's comments about jumping him. He expresses disdain for threats involving groups and emphasizes the importance of one-on-one confrontations. Strickland also mentions his views on self-defense, particularly in relation to gun laws in different states.
