UFC star Sean Strickland flashes gun at pranksters outside his home

Viral doorbell footage of Sean Strickland shows the former UFC fighter waving a gun at pranksters outside his home, just six months after holding a man at gunpoint on his property.

Strickland, who last fought in the Octagon in January, said TMZ that the incident took place over the weekend, around 1 a.m. on Saturday.

According to the fighter, several teenagers jumped out of a car and entered Strickland’s front yard before making a loud bang at the entrance of the house after walking through the house.

The home’s surveillance video then shows Strickland walking out wearing a bathrobe in response to the noise, as seen holding a firearm in his left hand. No shots were fired.

“Y’all got a car, it’s Friday night,” Strickland said in a caption for the images shared to his Instagram. “Why don’t you try to get P?” The youth of today. All wrong priorities.’

Strickland, 32, will next fight at UFC 302 in June after losing to Dricus Du Plessis in January

It remains unclear whether the teens intentionally knew they were fooling Strickland.

But the 33-year-old alluded to previous similar incidents, such as when he pointed a gun at an intruder in his driveway in November 2023 as the man ran from police.

“I didn’t notice the doorbell alarm until…,” he said. ‘Just so you all know! I get crazy things sent to my house….lol!’

Strickland also once chased a man with a flamethrower in x.

In September, American Israel Adesanya stunned by winning the middleweight title at UFC 293.

His next fight will be against Paulo Costa at UFC 302 on June 1. Strickland lost in five rounds by decision to Dricus Du Plessis in January.
