Jake Paul shares DMs with ‘wannabe alpha male’ Sean Strickland: ‘He needs a hug’

Maybe Sean Strickland just needs a nice long hug from someone who cares.

That is the conclusion drawn by YouTuber-turned-pro-boxer Jake Paul, who suggested that Strickland’s tough guy act is nothing more than a facade designed to hide a man longing for the love and affection he never received from his parental figures.

Or perhaps Sean Strickland is just f*cking crazy.

Either way, it’s quite clear that ‘The Problem Child’ does not like Strickland’s schtick. Paul recently called ‘Tarzan’ out on social media after video footage of the former middleweight champion pummeling popular Rumble streamer Sneako during a sparring session went viral.
