UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland watched an Amazon delivery driver crash his dirt bike after waving off a warning from fellow middleweight Anthony “Fluffy” Hernandez, who had clocked the man’s inexperience before he even mounted the bike.

Strickland had invited the driver to attempt a small ramp, convinced the man was hiding a secret talent. Hernandez was not convinced. The driver crashed, though he was immediately back on his feet and appeared uninjured.

“Fluffy said, ‘No, he can’t ride.’ I thought the guy could ride,” Strickland said on Instagram. “When you go snowboarding there’s always one black guy on the mountain doing f*cking backflips. I thought that was going to be him.”

Hernandez, for his part, said the outcome was obvious from the moment the driver sat down. “I could tell when he didn’t put his feet on the pegs; that was not gonna be him, bro,” he said.

The clip is the latest in a long line of unfiltered social media moments from Strickland, who has held the UFC middleweight title and built a reputation as one of the promotion’s more unpredictable personalities both inside and outside the octagon.
