A member of the Navy SEALs has called out Sean Strickland for questioning their training regimen.

Known for voicing his unfiltered opinion on almost everything, Strickland recently made headlines by pointing fingers at the Navy SEALs’ training method. While SEALs training is widely regarded some of the most strenuous in the world, Strickland claims none of them will survive a week of training with him.

“I don’t think there’s one f—king Navy [SEAL] who could survive a week training with me,” Strickland said in a video on social media. “I’m kind of sick of seeing it, cause you guys think you’re badass, come train with me for a week. I’ll show you what’s up, I’ll f—king break you.”

While most SEALs likely didn’t take kindly to Strickland’s comments, one in particular decided to voice his disagreement in a video post:

Sean we get it, you’re a badass bro. But check it out, your training partners get millions of dollars and they actually live. My swim buddies, they die every single year. Do you have any idea what that means? We’ve already proven that any kind of beatdown will not break us, but our training will simply just end your career, Sean. I’m talking about skin grafts on the thighs. You talk about taking people’s souls from their body. Well, me and my boys, we’ve actually taken a lot of real souls from people. You know what I’m saying bro? Your training is absolutely brutal man we get it, but your training doesn’t kill dudes every single year and that’s the world that we live in. My best advice for you, Sean, is to stay in the Octagon and keep fighting for that next purse and us SEALS will keep fighting for your freedom.

Strickland, who is notorious for his hard sparring sessions, relinquished his middleweight title in a split-decision defeat to Dricus Du Plessis at UFC 297 on Jan. 20.
