UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland believes that no one would watch women's MMA if it was broadcast separately from men's fights.
At a press conference Strickland said:
I think most people don't like women's fighting. If they were broadcast separately from the men's, then no one would watch this crap! It is a fact. There is a big difference between men's and women's fights.
