Jake Paul calls Sean Strickland insecure
After urging for a potential fight against Jake Paul, Sean Strickland was quick to back out and suggest that he couldn’t spar Paul because of being signed to the UFC. However, Strickland recently sparred influencer Sneako.
Speaking about the same during an episode of his podcast, Paul suggested that Sean Strickland is insecure and stated:
“Man, the guy seems to be having a quarter-life crisis there, just spazzing out on everyone… I said, ‘I’ll send you the ‘PJ’ [Private Jet]. Let me know where we can spar for a million dollars… You can spar anyone. Contractually, in your UFC contract, it says nothing about sparring.”
He added:
“All of a sudden, when I challenge you and want to send you a private jet, he’s making up excuses, saying he’s going to get sued by people… I feel bad for the guy. I see a very insecure, lost, wannabe, like, alpha male that’s hiding behind the tough man complex. He needs a hug.”
That said, it’s safe to say that a fight between Sean Strickland and Paul isn’t happening anytime soon. Regardless, the back and forth between the two is highly entertaining to watch in itself.
