David Goggins is done with all the trash-talking and video messages.

Earlier this week, the former U.S. Navy SEAL and ultramarathon runner found himself in a fiery feud with former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland. It all seemingly started with ‘Tarzan’ shared a video of him pummeling a Navy SEAL during a five-round sparring session.

Strickland has also made some disparaging remarks regarding the SEALs in the past, suggesting that not a single member of the elite military unit could hang with him in the gym for a single day.

That prompted Goggins to issue a challenge to the outspoken superstar, inviting Strickland to train with him for one of his infamous ‘Hell Week‘ camps.

Since then, the two have gone back and forth on social media, but little action beyond that has been taken. Reaching out one more time, Goggins agreed to step inside the cage with Strickland if ‘Tarzan’ could make it through three days of his brutal training regimen that pushed Tony Ferguson to the limit.

“This is my last video about this. Sean Strickland, I know you’re doing all this for clickbait,” Goggins said in a video posted on Instagram. “We had a DM the other day, me and you back and forth. I was pretty much DM’ing you because you called me a bitch, talking about my military career, and going out here like you said in your DM and trying to be a clown. You’re an MMA fighter and also you’re a comedian.

“I’m not much of a comedian at all. I’m an old-school man, bro. So you go out there calling people a b*tch and sh*t like that, saying no Navy SEAL can hang with your training. You were born in 1991 I believe. I was born in 1975. Talk about me being old, me being beat up. Once again, I know you’re trying to clickbait all this stuff, but I’m an old-fashioned man.”

From there, Goggins revealed a DM that he sent to Strickland which ‘Tarzan’ has not yet responded to.

“You have yet to respond to his, so at any time you want to train with me, I am ready to train with you,” Goggins added. “I am done with the videos. Ya’ll can keep on tagging me on TikTok and all this other sh*t… Sean, it’s in your court.”

Sean Strickland responds to David Goggins’ final challenge

It didn’t take long for Strickland to issue a response on social media, letting Goggins know that if he’s lookin’ to go, he’s not hard to find.

“Cracks me up to hear David Garggle Goggins rant… “I’m old school” as he’s on tiktok “let’s handle this like men” Ok sure,” Strickland wrote on X. “I’m in Vegas, you’re in Vegas….. I train at the same gym everyday.. IM EASY TO FIND! You on the other hand…. you just live on tiktok….location?”

Sean Strickland has accepted David Goggins‘ challenge.

The unexpected rivalry between Strickland and the former U.S. Navy SEAL has seemingly reached a boiling point. It all started when the ‘Tarzan’ issued a challenge to Goggings, inviting him to Xtreme Couture in Las Vegas for a 15-minute sparring session.

Goggins decided to one-up the ex-UFC champ, challenging Strickland to go through his infamous “Hell Week” training camp that had Tony Ferguson vomiting regularly.

“This is your opportunity to show that world that you can f*ck me up,” Goggins said in a video message.

“I will have camera crews out there. You make sure you bring your f*cking camera crew out there because you’re going to want to get this on camera. A 49-year-old broke down knee, f*cked up body guy is gonna put you through a camp that you think you can f*ck me up in. This is your opportunity, Strickland. I haven’t forgotten about your video. I hope to see you there also.”

Sean Strickland accepts Goggins’ challenge

It didn’t take long for Sean Strickland to snap back at Goggins, accepting the challenge and offering a word of warning.

“Goggins, I heard you want a piece,” Strickland said. “Challenge accepted. Just so you know man, the only thing you beat me at in life is f*cking running. But guess what, I don’t have to f*cking run. You run for me.”

Goggins’ challenge comes not long after Strickland released footage online of him pummeling a Navy SEAL during a five-round sparring session.

Before that, ‘Tarzan’ made some disparaging remarks about the Navy’s primary special operations force, suggesting that not a single member of the elite unit would be able to hang with him in the gym.

After spending 20 years of his life serving his country, Goggins is now best known for his accomplishments as an ultramarathon runner.
