Streamer Sneako alleges Sean Strickland beatdown got him banned from UFC performance institute

Controversial Twitch streamer Sneako had a brutal sparring session with Sean Strickland, the former UFC middleweight champion, at the UFC PI. The incident sparked controversy as Sneako was bloodied up by Strickland in what turned out to be a one-sided beatdown inside the cage.

Sneako has been in contact with many present and past UFC fighters, as evidenced by his training sessions with Jake Shields, Nate Diaz, and Chris Curtis, among others. Nonetheless, his decision to spar with Strickland was met with criticism even from Andrew Tate, the popular red pill influencer and former kickboxer.

Sneako claims UFC performance institute banned him

The sparring session Sneako had with Sean Strickland did not go unnoticed by the UFC brass as the act got him banned at the UFC Performance Institute. The streamer revealed it on his recent live stream on Rumble that featured Merab ‘The Machine’ Dvalishvili.

“I just came from the UFC PI. They say that I’m not allowed anymore,” said Sneako to Dvalishvili during the live stream on Rumble. Merab confirmed the ban as he said that he witnessed security personnel coming to dissuade the streamer from entering the Performance Institute.

“He’s sparring champions and gets beat up,” Dvalishvili mentioned as the reason for not allowing Sneako inside the PI, according to security. UFC CEO Dana White might have something to do with it, as he had earlier expressed his disapproval of the sparring incident.

Due to the ban at the PI, Sneako moved his workout sessions to Syndicate MMA in Las Vegas, where Dvalishvili trains when in Vegas. Dvalishvili splits his training time between Serra-Longo in Long Island and Syndicate MMA in Vegas for his fights.

Sneako is slapped by another UFC fighter Merab Dvalishvili

After the controversial sparring session with Sean Strickland, Sneako found himself at another sparring session but this time grappling against Merab Dvalishvili. Livestreamed on Rumble, the streamer was overwhelmed by Dvalishvili, who even used open palm strikes to humiliate his opponent.

Funnily enough, Dvalishvili even imparted grappling lessons to the streamer amidst the training session. Nonetheless, Sneako was unable to provide any sort of resistance to the Georgian fighter and even attempted to run away from the UFC fighter. It did not matter as Dvalishvili easily captured him and further humiliated him with open plan strikes.

Even before the sparring session with Strickland, Dvalishvili had rolled with Jake Shields and Nate Diaz in preparation for a potential fight with Mikey Musumeci. Diaz even slandered Musumeci with homophobic slang in one of the streamer’s livestreams on Rumble. Dvalishvili recently fought Henry Cejudo at UFC 298 and won via unanimous decision.
