UFC champion Sean Strickland took to social media to share a remarkable tale of holding a man at gunpoint outside of his home after the man allegedly assaulted a woman.
He explained in the Instagram post that he originally thought the man was trying to steal his car, only to find out he was trying to hide after fleeing the scene involving the assault.
“The guy was drunk stomping out a girl, a security guard seen it, he jumped in his car and drove off,” Strickland wrote. “Security followed him, hit a curb, completely shredded his tire, drove on the rim for awhile then jumped out and tried to hide at my house. I initially thought he was stealing my car.”
“He was arrested,” the champ added.

Instagram users summed events up best in just a few responses.
“Sean was salivating at the mouth when he saw the dude walk on his property,” one social media users wrote.
Another said, “Of all house in the street he choose the one, who chooses violence daily.”
“There’s roughly 260,000 houses in the Vegas area. Bro choose this one,” one individual wrote.
There were plenty of suggestions that UFC fighters be employed to enforce the law… here are additional responses to the story, as seen on X:
Maybe we should just hire UFC fighters as cops and FBI agents. America would be the safest country in the world!

This is how it’s done, folks. Apparently, these UFC fighters aren’t afraid to handle their business.
