‘The Problem Child‘ and Sean Strickland then went back and forth, trading insults on X. Strickland had enough of the trash talk and penned a final message:

Sneako managed to stay on his feet despite the onslaught from Sean Strickland, and the UFC fighter gave him his due credit.
Fans in the comments section were calling out Strickland for going too hard on someone who is not a professional. However, Sneako himself claimed he knew what he was getting into.
The content creator claimed that he wanted Strickland to go hard and not hold back. Despite this, Jake Paul and his ‘army of trolls’ started bashing the UFC fighter on X.
Paul even offered him a deal to spar with him that included a prize money of $1 million. The UFC fighter is keen to spar ‘The Problem Child’, but will they make it happen?
