“President Trump, you’re the man bro,” the fighter said of Trump in post-bout remarks at UFC 302.
Trump appeared at the fight night just days after being convicted of felony campaign finance violations by George Soros-funded Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
Strickland criticized the charges, which many legal experts have pointed to as political prosecution.
“President Trump, you’re the man bro,” Strickland said. “It is a damn travesty what they are doing to you.”
The outspoken UFC fighter also added that he would be opening up his wallet for Trump: “I’ll be donating to you my man!”
Strickland actually exited the octagon and proceeded to take a picture with Trump before speaking in his defense.
The selfie Strickland took with Trump swiftly went viral:

A violent series of blows at the end of the fifth and final round even had some fans questioning why Strickland wasn’t declared the winner by technical knockout.
Trump himself even applauded Strickland’s final series of strikes.

A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:
I heard a chilling comment the other day: “We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.”
That wasn’t said by a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday prophet. No, former U.S. national security advisor Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn said that to the founder of The Western Journal, Floyd Brown.
Gen. Flynn’s warning means that the 2024 election is the most important election for every single living American. If we lose this one to the wealthy elites who hate us, hate God, and hate what America stands for, we can only assume that 248 years of American history and the values we hold dear to our hearts may soon vanish.
The end game is here, and as Benjamin Franklin said, “We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.”
All of this means that without you, it’s over. We have the platform, the journalists, and the experience to fight back hard, but Big Tech is strangling us through advertising blacklists, shadow bans, and algorithms. Did you know that we’ve been blacklisted by 90% of advertisers? Without direct support from you, our readers, we can’t continue the fight.
Can we count on your support? It may not seem like much, but a Western Journal Membership can make all the difference in the world because when you support us directly, you cut Big Tech out of the picture. They lose control.
A monthly Western Journal Membership costs less than one coffee and breakfast sandwich each month, and it gets you access to ALL of our content — news, commentary, and premium articles. You’ll experience a radically reduced number of ads, and most importantly you will be vitally supporting the fight for America’s soul in 2024.
We are literally counting on you because without our members, The Western Journal would cease to exist. Will you join us in the fight?
Sincerely,
Josh Manning
Deputy Managing Editor
The Western Journal
