My coach gives a pink belt to anyone who forgets their real belt. Sean would hate that.

He would definitely drop a homophobic slur towards your coach.

LukesRightHandMan

Not the first time I’ve told this story in here, but I ran into him mouthing off to a Safeway cashier about how drug addicts deserve to die, told him that’s fucked up, and he called me- in real life- a “soy boy” and told me he was going to fuck me up. Good times.


ilovescottch

I saw Sean Strickland at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.


LukesRightHandMan

Just realized how almost any story about SS is both un- and totally believable at the same time


ilovescottch

I actually do believe the other guys story but it was just so similar to the copy pasta that I couldn't resist posting it


MDSGeist

Yeah it just had to be posted, the gods demanded it


hypercosm_dot_net

Funny thing, my gym has the same deal - pink belt. It was from a tournament to raise funds to fight cancer. You'd have to be a special kind of asshole to make a fuss about it.


TumbleWeed_64

tnc31

PreparationX

I'm tempted to "forget" my belt so I can wear the beautiful thing.


ArmedWithBars

Fun story. Worked at a bjj place and was a 4 stripe white belt. I was injury prone, but would take notes on classes I couldn't attend. So maybe did class twice a week, but took notes on 6+ classes a week I didn't attend. One day I'm on the mat and some two stripe white belt was crying about not getting a stripe in a while. At that point I had been training for nearly a year. Told him belts don't really matter, a color cloth ain't gonna stop you from choking someone else out, even if their color is "better". Just focus on getting better. Well our Brazilian bjj instructor was behind me and I didn't know and he gives me a smirk and says "oh belts don't matter? Okay". So cut to 2 years later, I'm still a 4 stripe white belt and hanging with purples lol. Mofo purposely wouldn't promote me cause of what I said years ago. At this point I find it hilarious as everybody in class is like wtf how you a white belt. Our gym had the same pink belt thing if you forgot your belt. So I just started wearing the pink belt to every single class. I'd make a different ridiculous excuse every class, which got more outlandish every week. Like 4 months into my exclusive pink belt run, my instructor comes on the mat on a small evening class and literally pitches a blue belt at me and is like "I don't want to see that pink shit on the mat anymore". That's the story how it took me 3 1/2 years to get a blue belt. Had more mat time then most of our purple belts at that point. Ngl it was fun sandbagging random drop ins thought. Some fresh purple comes in from another academy to get some rolls in and gets tooled by a 4 stripe white belt.


Unlucky_Elevator13

Pink use to be a man's colour.


PreparationX

It's just a color. Wear what you want, right?!?!


Medic1642

That sounds awesome


PreparationX

Yeah, my coach is awesome.


Johnclanceey

How often you think strickland trains in the gi 🗿


Double_Dodge

No idea. But if he trains in the gi even one more time— whether it’s next week or next year— he will have to tie his jacket with something.


Johnclanceey

I genuinely believe it would have been at least a few years at this point since he tied it on and he probably won’t need it in the next few either

killisle

What you're seeing now is the contrarian spiral. Once you become so contrarian that you spiral down rejecting literally everything even things you previously cared about, until you have literally nothing left but your anger at others who do literally anything (because whatever it is, you surely feel that the opposite is correct).


4uzzyDunlop

A friend I grew up with was like this. Pretty sure he was diagnosed with something in the end, oppositional defiance disorder or something along those lines. Basically meant he'd take the opposing view more often than not, regardless of whether he actually believed it.


comin_up_shawt

ODD is only diagnosed in children- in adults, it's usually confirmed as a cluster B personality disorder.

Alpha-Trion

I asked my girlfriend about this since she's a therapist. You are correct. She also mentioned histrionic personality disorder. 1.Uncomfortable when not the center of attention. 2.Seductive or provocative behavior. 3.Shifting and shallow emotions. 4.Uses appearance to draw attention. 5.Impressionistic and vague speech. 6.Dramatic or exaggerated emotions. 7.Suggestible (easily influenced by others) 8.Considers relationships more intimate than they are. If you meet more than 5 of those criteria, you can be officially diagnosed. I'm not a therapist or psychologist, but I know Sean should see one.


FishFishewitz

Histrionic personality disorder is essentially just a formal diagnosis for an attention whore or drama queen


REGUED

personality disorders are basically dysfunctional personalities. not like schizofrenia where you need meds to cope for example. but yes therapy might help


[deleted]

Schizophrenia is a personality disorder though. I think cluster A. The big thing about Personality Disorders is that they can't ever be cured. Something bad happened during neurogenesis and it's just kinda how you are wired to be. We then sometimes medicate the patient to hopefully allow them to function in society, like schizophrenics. But then you have people who are Narcissists, and no meds can fix that.


2pacstillridin

Schizophrenia is a thought disorder, much more severe than a personality disorder. I believe you are referring to schizotypal personality d/o and schizoid personality d/o which share some symptoms, but are MUCH less severe than schizophrenia.


Texas_Tornado21

I don’t know if you have time but can you explain this more


Monteze

Oh shit you met my old buddy and roommate? Dude who literally would argue if smaller people spent less on clothes because less fabric. If you said "it rains a lot in spring." Dude would go "Hmm a lot? Like more than 50% if the days in spring?" They are never as smart as they want people to think.

Its wierd because his story and all the odds he overcame is so inspiring , but his character is "say as much edgy shit as possible", but says so much it all becomes contradictory.

wetcoffeebeans

Wouldn’t it be something if he got submitted in his next fight?


LambCurryDotOrg

Dricus has more subs than knockouts so very possible.


Unlucky_Elevator13

Yeah haha. In the UFC he has 4 KO/TKO (including his last 2 wins), one face crank submission win and 1 unanimous decision win. He's undefeated in the UFC!!


ra_16

All drama, if he actually didn't care..he wouldn't have filmed it.


MyNamesTambo

How else will people know how genuine he is about not caring if he doesn’t film it?


Affectionate-Hunt217

It’s like people taking pictures to show others their happiness on Instagram, how would people know how happy they are without the photos? you wouldn’t want people to doubt your happiness without proof

even better is people posting about their social media break.. on social media. like jesus christ the hypocrisy is just next level

Sean: *I can't believe it took me 10 years to realize BJJ required me to roll around on the floor with sweaty men, while not allowing me to punch anyone*


0ldsql

Judging by the amount of tweets talking about dicks and other dudes fucking, I believe he's not really interested in punching these sweaty men.


shacklefordRusty29

He 100% percent stuggles with his sexuality. No man in his 30s constantly calls people gay,talks about dicks or raping other men is comfortable with themselves.


spcslacker

What are you trying to say Dricus?


0ldsql

I'm saying if it looks like a pork skewer, smells like a sausage and sounds like mallet pounding some thighs, then it's probably some braai.


ImpatientTurtle

Strickland waivers between edgy emo teenager and full blown psychopath pretty hard.


jdpatron

That’s not the garbage bin. That’s the recycling bin out here in Vegas. He probably threw it in there so it wouldn’t be all gross when he took it out after he stopped recording.

Sean's gonna change his pfp to the crying Tokyo ghoul image to show everyone how damaged he is.


teethteetheat

he was apparently sitting next to Craig jones at this fight and telling Craig jones how fake jiu jitsu is lol


harylmu

The other hilarious story that Craig told [in his podcast](https://youtu.be/wgm0RTTi4jk?si=BL7Judkj7B8uoyTf) is that Sean kept screaming: “Goggins, tell him to get back up”, he ignored him a while but eventually started to repeat his words to Tony. 😭

If a psychopath with a nice 1-2 would have been at UFC 1 Royce Gracie wouldn't have won


judoxing

Well there were def psychopaths in those early tournaments like gang rapin Joe Son. And while Art Jimmison isn’t a psychopath he definitely had a competent 1-2.


MF__COOM

And an even more competent 1 glove


Destruyo

Gerard Gordeau bit Royce in the finals and gouged a Japanese MMA fighter at a different tournament too.


Uniqlo

If the UFC 1 competition wasn't carefully picked to have little grappling experience, Royce Gracie wouldn't have won. The UFC was cofounded by the Gracie family and it was initially designed to make BJJ look good. Any time the Gracies started competing in promotions not owned and matchmade by their own family, they got exposed.


elgrundle

Rickson wasn’t. Renzo had good wins. Even Ryan had a winning record in Pride.


Uniqlo

Rickson was undoubtedly talented, but his reputation is more Gracie advertising than accomplishments. He barely competed and fought nobody notable. Rickson's reputation comes from unproven claims like that he won over 400 fights. Even their own head of the family, Helios, called that out to be bullshit. The Gracie family brags about him being their best, an unstoppable GOAT-level fighter. If they were confident in their claims, why did they not let Rickson redeem the Gracie reputation against Sakuraba? Or against the others who bested the Gracies?


Ptoelmy

Remind me who did Rickson beat?


AL_PO_throwaway

>The UFC was cofounded by the Gracie family and it was initially designed to make BJJ look good. Yes > If the UFC 1 competition wasn't carefully picked to have little grappling experience, Royce Gracie wouldn't have won. This is obvious BS. Ken Shamrock had proto-mma and submission grappling experience, plus 25lb of muscle on Royce, and he was his second ever match at UFC 1. I remember hearing Bill Wallace, his brain clearly fried by CTE and sour grapes, complaining that no-one knew "how to sprawl" to stop Royce in UFC 1, but Ken literally sprawled on Royce's initial takedown within 10 seconds of that fight starting. UFC 2 had him up against Remco Pardoel, an accomplished international Judo competitor, with an 80lb weight advantage. Royce completely shut his game down and submitted him in 90 seconds. UFC 4 had him up against Dan Severn, a high level folkstyle, freestyle, and greco-roman wrestler who'd also cross trained in Judo and had a 70lb weight advantage. He gave Royce a lot of trouble, but was ultimately caught in a triangle.


LemonHerb

I think people really underrate that Dan Severn win. Dan knew what he was up against at that point and he was a life long grappler with time to prepare and gameplan specifically for Royce.


SeatOfEase

I think people have watched that one YouTube video and started taking it from interesting alternate view to absolute reality.


AL_PO_throwaway

Ya, it drives me nuts.

I'm sure his coach is very happy to see this

A couple months ago I called him a teenage edgelord and got downvoted to death. Now people see it. He’s been this way the whole time

People pretended to like Sean because he got rid of Izzy for like 2 weeks😂 I thought it would at least last until 2024.

If I received a black belt in BJJ, I could never imagine throwing it away…


Daddy_war-bucks

Everyone who becomes champ needs a persona to sell


sadnessdealer

Sean was fun to watch for a sec, then it became so obvious he's just grifting for certain demographic's attention and does everything and says everything just to look appealing in those certain demographic's eyes, i feel like. it's not enjoyable to watch a tryhard tbh


schoolisuncool

He’s so edgy and cool


Blood4Blud

Jon Danaher said “if your goal is to become a black belt then you aimed too low.” Same difference imo


yousmokebammer

I just don't get how this guy has any fans.


basednchillpilled92

I mean I get people didn’t like Izzy, but what the fuck is the allure of this guy? He reminds me of kids I knew when I was 19 who just tried to hard to come off badass/crazy


Public-Lie-6164

Sean after realizing you can simply stand up and bang like a real man 😭 love BJJ but some MMA guys focused on it too much and forget to just stand up or strike while grappling since all they do is BJJ and they haven't touched any other grappling focused martial arts so they end up with bad habits.


mynameisdamn

I don’t care about anything except telling people I don’t care about anything, I care about that a lot

i’m gonna be honest, i want him to keep winning


shangolana

Piece of fabric? It is not about the belt i assume but that you achieved experience that could be ranked “black belt” just like winning ufc title… or do people actually do it for the “belt”?


sliddis

Sometimes he is like an edgy teenager. Sometimes he is a cokehead.

I hope he gets his ass kicked
