Ian Garry and Sean Strickland continue their heated feud.
Garry was on the receiving end of some blowback by fans over his personal life. "The Future's" wife came under fire after it was discovered that she wrote a book on being what is called a "WAG," which means a girlfriend or wife dating a sportsman of high value. Some have accused Garry's wife of being a gold digger, and she has blasted that notion on social media.
The issue between Garry and Strickland began when the UFC middleweight champion chimed in publicly. Strickland said he sensed something was off with Garry's wife when he met the two in person. He also urged Garry to get out of the relationship.
Recently, Garry took to Instagram to put Sean Strickland on blast over his UFC 296 brawl with his first challenger Dricus Du Plessis. Garry brought up Strickland's personal childhood trauma.
"@stricklandmma How the tables have turned, you dish it out in the lowest most vile manner but can't take a pinch, you attacked my wife incessantly and obsessively calling her a peadofile, it's clear to see your childhood trama showing. You claimed you were 'giving me advice' before, well now it's my turn to return the favour, You should shut your mouth and focus on the mirror because you have enough serious issues you need to solve. I wish you all the best with them. Don't ever project your pain onto me & family again. Happy New Year."
After Strickland's first comments on Garry's wife, the UFC titleholder followed up by claiming he was being threatened with a lawsuit. He blasted Garry for how he handled the situation. Garry and Strickland ended up having a confrontation inside the UFC Performance Institute and had to be separated.
