UFC star Sean Strickland left popular streamer Sneako bloodied and bruised after being challenged to a fight.
Former middleweight world champion Strickland is known for not holding back in sparring and he gladly took up Sneako's fight offer at the UFC's Performance Institute in Las Vegas despite the streamer having no combat sports experience. Sneako thought he would be doing several rounds with Strickland but the UFC star only needed one to issue a brutal beatdown.
Strickland went easy on Sneako for several minutes of their spar but decided to give the streamer a rude awakening in the final 30 seconds when he launched a barrage of punches. Sneako's friends threw in the towel to stop the fight on three occasions but that didn't stop Strickland from punching him, with UFC pioneer Forrest Griffin eventually pulling him away.

"You didn't fall down Sneako! You didn't fall down, good job," Strickland said after beating him up. Former UFC fighter Jake Shields, who was coaching Sneako, was also impressed that he stayed on his feet. "That was awesome, you sparred a world champion and didn’t go down. You took some hard shots," he said.

Strickland's decision to beat up Sneako didn't sit well with YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul as he wrote: Sean Strickland you’re embarrassing for trying to stop Sneako like that you weren’t even able to drop someone with no experience while going all out You’re a horrid boxer that only picks on inexperienced people."
Paul then challenged Strickland to a $1million spar by adding: "I’ll fly you to Puerto Rico and we can fight on camera… if you win I’ll give you $1 million (half your net worth) But if you get dropped you have to get Betr tattooed on you. DM me. But just like Paddy [Pimblett] I’m guessing you’ll find a way to run."
Strickland then countered Paul's offer by saying they should fight in the desert with no cameras: "Jake I'll make you a better deal because money can't buy happiness and you have plenty of it and you're still a c***. No cameras, me and you in a desert, that would buy my happiness. No Instagram, no likes, no games.... just you that's what I want."
