Sean Strickland, former UFC Middleweight Champion, recently took to ‘X’ to address a Navy Seal’s callout. Previously, Strickland had stated in a video that ‘no navy seal’ can survive a week of training with Strickland. Sean initially made the video when David Goggins, an ex-Navy Seal, was training Tony “El Cucuy” Ferguson for UFC 296.

“Every time you went for an armbar or a choke, I would chew your face off. I would pull your ears off,” expressed the Navy Seal’ in the video. He also further went onto threatening Strickland with sodomy.
“Come to the street where there are no rules… no places I can’t hit you… no bells, only survival instinct…. it’ll be a different story for you,” he said.
Strickland also faced backlash in the past for stating the same, but by other retired/ex-Navy-Seals, but nobody took the time to callout Strickland for a street fight.
