UFC middleweight contender Sean Strickland was slammed for a viral video of him beating up an apparent former Navy Seal in sparring. The Navy Seal veteran, named Mitch, stepped into a cage with the former UFC middleweight champion and suffered a beating for 25 minutes. Strickland was seen peppering Mitch with punches and knocking him down with leg kicks as he grasped for air. While some comments debated the legitimacy of his Navy Seal training, others were quick to slam Strickland for 'picking on' a civilian.
