Sean Strickland accuses MMA manager Tiki Ghosn of misconduct with multiple women: “Worse than I thought”

Former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland is going to bat for victims of alleged misconduct by well-renowned MMA manager Tiki Ghosn.

Strickland is expected to receive the next UFC middleweight title shot against the Dricus du Plessis vs. Israel Adesanya winner. UFC CEO Dana White confirmed such during a recent press conference, to the delight of Strickland, who has insisted on waiting for a title shot.

As he awaits his next UFC booking, Strickland has aimed at Ghosn, who he has accused of predatory behavior with multiple women. Ghosn owns Arsenal Sports Agency, which represents top UFC fighters such as Brian Ortega, Dustin Poirier, and Aljamain Sterling.

The worst things Tiki could do is sue me.

I will show a lawyer the messages. The girls, the father. They will all have to give a statement in discovery

And it will be forced public. I think he best thing is trying to hide out until the next news cycle, I ain't letting it die
