Sean Strickland’s First Tweet After He Was Banned From White House

Published

on


Following on from his claims about being banned from the UFC Freedom 250 event, set to be held at the White House, Sean Strickland has gone all out in his own polarising way.

The controversial American has posted about being banned from the UFC event on the 14th of June, and instead of seeking any sort of forgiveness, has further pushed the boat out.

The UFC middleweight champion released a video on X saying he had been banned from attending the event due in part to his outspoken views on President Donald Trump’s handling of the Iran conflict, as well as his associations with Jeffrey Epstein and the Israeli government.

Strickland last entered the Octagon in May, when he took the middleweight title off of Khamzat Chimaev, so it would have been very unlikely that he would fight again at this event. Despite that, Dana White and the rest of the UFC hierarchy have made it clear to the 35-year-old that he is not welcome to attend UFC White House.

It seems that Tarzan hasn’t taken the news particularly well, as he has jumped on social media to double down on his opinions.

Sean Strickland’s Reaction to Being Banned From White House

The veteran has never been afraid to speak his mind, and is known as a loose cannon, which helps explain why he has been told to stay away from what is already looking like a controversial event.

Only hours after releasing a video in which he explains why he has been blacklisted from Washington DC, he posted an AI image of himself wearing his usual fighting gear, as well as a fedora, a large trench coat, as well as sporting payots, in an attempt to look Jewish.

Controversial UFC Fighter Goes Viral For Strong Reaction to Sean Strickland’s White House Ban

Bryce Mitchell, as always, has reacted honestly to the ban of Sean Strickland from UFC Freedom 250.

Strickland posted a caption on the AI-generated image saying: “Going to the White House was promised to me 3,000 years ago.”

The reference is seen as an anti-Semitic slur regarding the Torah teachings where God promised the land of Israel to the Jewish people 3,000 years ago.

Sean Strickland Gets Into War of Words With Justin Gaethje

The controversial UFC fighter didn’t stop there, though. He has been very active on X giving his opinions on the matter, and has even begun feuding with other fighters, such as Justin Gaethje, on the platform.

Strickland has always been a controversial figure, and this latest episode doesn’t come as a surprise to anyone.

Before last month’s win over Chimaev at UFC 328, the veteran called his Russian opponent a ‘terrorist’, while in January, before his bout against Anthony Hernandez, he posted an AI-generated image of himself as a US immigration officer and Hernandez, who is, like Strickland, a California native, in a sombrero and poncho.

Bruno Fernandes To Stay At Man Utd Despite €20m-A-Year Galatasaray Offer

Published

Bruno Fernandes is expected to stay at Manchester United despite interest from Galatasaray, GIVEMESPORT understands.

Manchester United sources insist their captain is not for sale at any price this summer, while a €65million release clause for non-English clubs expired last month.

Galatasaray have offered Fernandes an annual salary of more than €20million, and a four-year contract, but Manchester United are not prepared to engage with the Turkish club.

Fernandes also intends to stay and is in talks with Manchester United to extend his contract. His current deal runs until next summer and contains the option to extend by a further year.

It is not the first time Fernandes has been offered lucrative terms to leave Old Trafford. Last summer, Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr and Al-Ittihad all made approaches. Al-Hilal were the most advanced of the three clubs ahead of the 2025 Club World Cup, but Fernandes felt the move was wrong for both football and family reasons.

The 31-year-old Portugal international went on to have an outstanding season with Manchester United, helping them secure Champions League qualification and contributing with 21 assists – a Premier League record for a single season, surpassing both Kevin De Bruyne and Thierry Henry (20). He only failed to manage a goal contribution against three teams – Everton, Sunderland and West Ham.

Galatasaray value Fernandes at around €50million, but Manchester United have not yet received an offer. Sources say should an approach arrive it would be rejected out of hand.

Turkey’s tax system is far more favourable than in the UK meaning if Fernandes accepted the move he would essentially double his salary.

Fees correct prior to summer 2026

Galatasaray’s interest will no doubt give Fernandes leverage as he seeks improved terms at Manchester United. The club remain calm over Fernandes’ future having been given a verbal commitment he would not seek an exit this summer when the season ended.

Fernandes has also been linked with AC Milan and Juventus, while Saudi interest remains, especially from Al-Nassr.

Donald Trump’s Ex-Caddie Revealed Cheating Instructions He’d Receive to Win Golf Tournaments

Published

on

By


By all accounts, winning more than 40 club golf titles would be an incredibly impressive, not to mention commendable, feat. But what about if you’re Donald Trump?

The US president has bragged repeatedly about his trophy-winning talents around the golf course, most recently shooting a supposed 70 around the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster to take home yet another championship.

Admitting he had “very little time to practice” due to being focused on many other things, unlike the rest of the field, the 80-year-old declared: “It’s called TALENT, and I have it, and they don’t!”

Whether he has it, though, is a question that routinely follows the president around golf courses. Trump has been regularly accused of being a cheat, with an ex-caddie now revealing the exact nature of just how true that is.

Donald Trump’s Love Story With Golf

Bryson DeChambeau and Donald Trump

Releasing a book back in 2005 which featured advice from different golf professionals and teachers, Trump described golf as “more than a game. It is a passion” for both himself and millions of people around the world.

He’s still found time for that passion, even as the most powerful man in the world. The sight of him hitting the golf course has proven to be a regular thing in his two terms as President of the United States, routinely playing alongside different celebrities, from UFC stars such as Bo Nickal through to footballers including England captain Harry Kane.

Trump owns a number of golf courses, having steadily built a portfolio of them as a real estate developer over the years. He opened the first in 1999 in Florida and has seen them play host to a number of PGA and LPGA events. This includes courses in Scotland, the UAE, Puerto Rico and Indonesia, as well as the USA. He also claims to be something of a virtuoso around them, allegedly winning over 40 championships, all of them at his own courses.

Donald Trump Exposed by Ex-Caddie

Rick Reilly’s book, Commander In Cheat: How Golf Explains Trump, runs through the cheating accusations levelled at the president in depth, including his nickname of ‘Pele’ as he allegedly “kicks his ball back onto the fairway.”

Interviewing Trump back in 2000, Reilly was told by him that he’d already won 12 championships. He referred to Trump’s boasting about these victories as “a lie that’s so over-the-top Crazytown it loses all credibility among golfers the second it’s out of his mouth.”

That number has seemingly grown substantially since then, with Reilly shedding some light on just how he’s managed to pull it off.

“Well, actually, what Trump has is caddies waiting out ahead on the course, fluffing up his lies, throwing his balls out of bunkers and picking up eight-foot putts they’ve decided he doesn’t need to make. I talked to an ex-caddie of his, who said, ‘Everybody knows the deal. He has to win the tournament and shoot the lowest score. It’s your job to make sure’.”

There is also video evidence of this in practice. Footage re-shared to social media recently shows Trump pulling up to a bunker in a buggy, flanked by two caddies, one of which uses the natural back and forth of his arms as he walks to drop a golf ball behind him without breaking stride.

While the clip does not show if Trump actually plays the dropped ball, it does look as if the president is about to set himself for the shot from there.

“So now I have the Championship Cheat Chart at 40 wins,” continued Reilly. “Though an onlooker at Bedminster taking a video of the awards said that by his count, Trump is up to 43.”

Jacob Fatu’s 7-Word Tweet About Hayden Panettiere’s Death Causes Stir

Published

Many were left shocked and saddened after the death of Hayden Panettiere, but one reaction from the world of wrestling has caused a stir.

A former child star, who appeared as Claire Bennet in the television show Heroes and Kirby Reed in the Scream horror movie franchise, Panettiere died aged 36 after being found unresponsive in an apartment.

Tributes poured in from across the world of entertainment and beyond, including from her former fiancee and father of her daughter, heavyweight boxing champion Wladimir Klitschko, who said “nothing will erase the times we shared or the place she had in our lives.”

It’s the words of another, however, that have been gaining traction in social media circles, with WWE Superstar Jacob Fatu raising eyebrows with his reaction.

Jacob Fatu’s Wrestling Career

Jacob Fatu Returns to WWE

Fatu signed for WWE in 2024 and has quickly established himself as a star, building on a record-making 819-day run as Major League Wrestling’s (MLW) world heavyweight champion.

The 34-year-old has been wrestling professionally since 2012 and performed under a number of organisations, including All Pro Wrestling, DEFY Wrestling, Game Changer Wrestling, House of Glory, and PCW Ultra. It was at MLW, however, where he really started to make a name for himself.

That success saw him earn a move to WWE, joining Solo Sikoa, his real life cousin, in The Bloodline, before establishing himself as a star by winning the WWE Tag Team Championship and WWE United States Championship.

He was in action at SummerSlam, performing on night 1, back with The Bloodline, alongside The Usos, actually coming up against Solo Sikoa, Royce Keys, and LA Knight in a six-man tag team match. They lost, however, with Fatu being Powerbombed by Keys.

The Seven Words From Fatu Causing a Stir

After TMZ posted about Hayden Panettiere’s passing, Fatu reposted it, writing: “THE TRUTH WILL COME TO THE LIGHT!!”

At the time of writing, the post has amassed over 2,300 retweets and more than 29,000 likes. It has been viewed 3.1 million times. It’s unclear exactly what Fatu meant with the post, but that did not stop fans from flocking to his replies to express their disapproval.

One wrote, “lol be careful homie. Remember who you work for”, while another urged Fatu to “please delete this bro.”

One user pleaded with Fatu to “get off social media, man PLEASE”, while @MomsProllyMad encouraged him to “let WWE social media team run your accounts, you gonna have some cocktails and say something stupid, and wind up in aew.”
