Luke Rockhold accuses Sean Strickland of hurting sparring partners

Luke Rockhold has accused Sean Strickland of repeatedly attempting to injure sparring partners during their time training together.

Rockhold, a former UFC middleweight champion, told fans on social media that Strickland showed up at their gym and targeted younger fighters who were brought in to help him prepare. "Sean is truly a piece of shit," Rockhold said, according to Sherdog. "He showed up on our doorstep, and he was just a loud idiot."

Rockhold says Strickland crossed the line with training partners

The criticism centers on Strickland's alleged conduct during sparring sessions. Rockhold claimed the former middleweight champ tried to knock out training partners even after hurting them. "He was trying to beat up kids who were helping him and trying to knock them out consistently after he already hurt them," Rockhold said.

Rockhold added that Strickland's gym behavior made him someone he preferred to avoid. The comments surface as Strickland prepares for his next UFC appearance, though no specific incident or timeline was mentioned in Rockhold's remarks.

Strickland has not publicly responded to the allegations.
