Strickland has been known to be unhinged at times. During a recent “spar” with Sneako, Strickland was clearly trying to hurt the social media figure inside the cage before finally walking away from the untrained Sneako. It’s not something you typically see from a former UFC champion, but Strickland certainly isn’t like most.

O’Malley did not like what he saw from Strickland.

Sean O’Malley Disapproves Of Sean Strickland’s Actions

During a recent edition of the “TimboSugarShow,” Sean O’Malley admitted that he felt the situation was messed up and that the former middleweight champion probably didn’t have to go through those lengths (h/t MMAMania).

“I thought it was f—ked up,” O’Malley said. “His corner threw in the towel. If someone came in here and wanted me to f—king peck around with him because I’m a professional champ and they want to get a little taste of what it’s like, I’m not gonna — did you see how hard he was trying to hurt him?

“I’m a professional fighter, he’s a professional fighter — they threw in the towel, he clearly quit, he clearly was balling up and [Strickland] was still trying to hurt him,” he concluded. “I don’t know [if it was good for Sneako].”

O’Malley said it would only be acceptable to take some liberties if Sneako was trash talking Strickland.

“I’ve never liked hurting people,” O’Malley said. “If Sneako was talking s—t at all then it 100 percent changes it. If someone is talking s—t then they want to come in and want to spar and I agree then it’s different.

“It depends if Sneako was talking s—t acting like he could do something then it makes it 100 percent okay to whoop his ass a little bit,” he concluded.
