Former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland is no stranger to riling people up, and one of his latest actions caught the eye of Jake Paul.
Strickland recently sparred with Sneako, which in reality, was just a one-sided beatdown that left the streamer bruised and bloodied. Paul took exception to the footage that was posted online, prompting the YouTuber-turned-boxer to issue a challenge of his own.
“The Problem Child” called Strickland “embarrassing” and a “horrid boxer” for his actions against Sneako. Paul challenged Strickland to travel to Puerto Rico for a fight, and if the former UFC champion wins, he will take home a $1 million prize.
It didn’t take long for Strickland to offer his reply, in which he took a shot at Paul for losing to Tommy Fury. Strickland also accepted the challenge, but things took a dark turn from that point, as the former UFC champ said he would kill Paul if it were legal.
