UFC star Anthony Hernandez has some terrifying words for fellow middleweight fighter Sean Strickland, who recently shared a racist social media post insulting his Mexican roots, saying he can’t wait to face Strickland “because I’m going to f**king torture him.”
The fourth-ranking middleweight will get that chance on Saturday, about a month after Strickland posted an image of himself as an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent next to Hernandez in a poncho and sombrero.
Hernandez reacted on Tuesday’s episode of the New York Post show “Against the Cage.”
“Honestly, like, I laughed when I seen that shit,” he told host Scott Fontana. “I was like, if that’s the best you got to get in my head, it’s going to be a long fucking night. That shit does not faze me. It’s fucked up, yeah, and I don’t like seeing shit like that.”
Hernandez continued, “I don’t like that my people got to go through shit like that, you know what I mean? But it’s fucking life, and that’s the reality of it. Some people are just dirtbags and like to bring it up. But dude, I’m excited for the fight.”
