Sean Brady is content to play the heel following his smash-and-grab win over Leon Edwards in London last weekend.

The Philly native improved his career record to an impressive 18-1 with a fourth-round submission win via modified guillotine choke in the main event of the UFC’s latest event in the English capital this past Saturday night.

And while Brady is more than happy with the manner of his win, he has said that he isn’t the biggest fan of London amid what appears to be a significant culture shock for the American when faced with a less-than-ideal Airbnb experience and, perhaps somewhat bizarrely, too many foxes in the locale for his liking.

“First of all, the supermarkets, there’s nothing in them. The supermarkets are horrible,” Brady told Michael Bisping on his podcast, as reported by Bloody Elbow.

“We went to a Whole Foods. You know, Whole Foods in the States, there’s aisles of everything. It was three miles away; it took us 35 minutes to get there. We get there, and it’s like a f*cking  7-Eleven. Every Miami has a 7-Eleven. My corner was eating Five Guys, and we found a Turkish spot by our Airbnb. There’s no English food.

“Then, you guys don’t have stevia in your coffee shops. I could write a book on how much I dislike London.”

And the Airbnb itself appeared to be a point of contention too.

“My daughter’s crib was bigger than the bed at the Airbnb,” he said. “I had to check into a hotel on weight cut night, so I got a good night’s sleep.”

Brady then asked Bisping’s co-host and Brady training partner Paul Felder to give his opinion on their temporary digs.

“How small was that Airbnb, Paul?” he asked.

“It was little,'” Felder said. “There was a fox running around, too.”

“There are foxes killing cats everywhere,” Brady said.

So let that be a warning to anyone planning a visit to London anytime soon. There is no stevia, too many foxes and the Whole Foods stores are less than impressive.
