Talk met action in a Friday sparring match between former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland and influencer Sneako.

The match came about as the result of a dare from the 26-8 Strickland, and offered few surprises.

Strickland took the approach of giving Sneako the first shot, and a whole lot more after that, as he spent about the first three minutes swatting away whatever Sneako threw at him.

Once Strickland decided it was his turn, he stalked Sneako with virtually no opposition until finally Strickland was restrained to stop Sneako’s pummeling.

After the match was over, a video posted to X showed the two men posing for photos and acting in a more companionable and far less combative manner.

“I would still like to do a podcast if you want to,” Sneako said.

Later on, he commented, “I think the laughing cancels out the punches that I got.”

In another video posted to X, Strickland gave Sneako some praise.

“The fact that you did not fall down, bro, that’s impressive,” Strickland said.

“You were trying to make me fall?” Sneako asked in response.

”I was trying to,” Strickland said after a fist bump with Sneako.

“All you had to do was fall and I would have stopped,” he said.

Former UFC fighter Jake Shields, who served as Sneako’s trainer, said Sneako knew the experience of sparring with Strickland would not be a picnic.

“I told him that was a bad idea but he had already committed and all a man has is his word ,” he posted on X.

“Strickland beat Sneako senseless but he never quit and never complained I told him to take 30 min to recover but he wanted to start our workout right away while still covered in blood I dont know him well but he showed he has massive heart,” he wrote.

“I see a lot of people hating on  @SStricklandMMA for beating up @sneako but he’s a man and knew what he was getting into. I was very clear to Sneako that If he [sparred] Sean he was gonna get f***ed up and he choose to do it regardless,” he wrote.

“While personally I never try and KO a new fighter (unless he does something to piss me off) everyone knows Strickland f***s up his sparring partners,” Shields wrote in a post on X.


A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:

“We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” Those 12 words have been stuck in my head since I first read them. 

Former Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn recently made that comment to Floyd Brown, founder of The Western Journal. 

And if the leftists and the elites get their way, that’s exactly what will happen — no real election, no real choice for the Electoral College, and no real say for the American people. 

The Western Journal is fighting to keep that from happening, but we can’t do it alone.

We work tirelessly to expose the lying leftist media and the corrupt America-hating elites.

But Big Tech’s stranglehold is now so tight that without help from you, we will not be able to continue the fight. 

The 2024 election is literally the most important election for every living American. We have to unite and fight for our country, otherwise we will lose it. And if we lose the America we love in 2024, we’ll lose it for good. Can we count on you to help? 

With you we will be able to field journalists, do more investigative work, expose more corruption, and get desperately needed truth to millions of Americans. 

We can do this only with your help. Please don’t wait one minute. Donate right now.

Thank you for reading,
