Sean Strickland recently praised Conor McGregor for being the epitome of success in the UFC and MMA as a whole. However, he contrasted his compliment by calling the Irishman a "white trash f**k."

Strickland, while on Michael Bisping's Believe You Me podcast, said:

"I just heard you talking about McGregor man. McGregor is the f**king like pinnacle of success and I'll tell you why dude. We're all just f**king dog and someone has our leash. You know, Dana is a dog with somebody, somebody is holding his leash. I'm a dog with Dana and he's holding my leash. The moment you become McGregor dude, nobody has your f**king leash anymore and that's like the f**king pinnacle of success and you can do whatever the f**k you want...Y eah but the end of the day, don't forget that McGregor is like a white trash f**k who came in the money."

Sean Strickland's disappointment with Conor McGregor stemmed from the Irishman's recent endeavors in Italy.

Conor McGregor allegedly punched Francesco Facchinetti, a DJ, singer and TV personality from Rome, Italy.

Facchinetti described the incident in an exclusive interview with The Daily Mail, saying the former UFC lightweight champion flipped at him for no reason whatsoever.

He said:

"We were having a drink together and everything seemed fine when suddenly he changed. I was a few inches from him when he punched me full in the face with his right hand. I went flying backwards and crashed into a table."

Michael Bispig slammed Conor McGregor for his actions in Italy; said 'nobody likes a bully'

In a recent video uploaded to his YouTube channel, Michael Bisping trashed Conor McGregor for picking on regular people and celebrities instead of MMA fighters.

Apparently Conor McGregor beat up a well-known Italian singer, DJ Francesco, at a party in Rome, the latter's wife stated on her social media.

She said that thought it was all joke, a show, at first, but then she saw her husband bleeding and McGregor being held against the wall.

He said that McGregor is a mere silhouette of the man he once was. The Englishman also asked Conor McGregor to stop being a bully and focus on his fighting career.
