Derek Moneyberg, known off the mats as online wealth coach Dale Buczkowski, has initiated a defamation suit against former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland. The suit stems from a heated hallway confrontation in Las Vegas in late August, during which Strickland publicly accused Moneyberg of exploiting low-paid fighters to promote financial schemes. Moneyberg’s complaint alleges that Strickland’s statements are “maliciously spreading lies and false information” about his business and personal reputation.

Moneyberg first encountered Strickland at a hotel in Las Vegas. In a video that went viral, Strickland accused Moneyberg of “taking advantage of low-paid UFC fighters who are great men, who are just trying to make their mortgage and live a life… And he takes advantage of these men and he uses their platform to peddle financial scams.
