Sean Strickland scoffs at alleged Tyron Woodley threat over Din Thomas comments: ‘Weak ass b*tch’

Sean Strickland is airing out some private business after sharing what appears to be a direct message conversation between himself and former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley.

The alleged dispute follows Strickland calling out coach and UFC commentator Din Thomas, who is under fire for announcing his retirement from corner work Saturday in the wake of his fighter Gillian Robertson suffering a disappointing strawweight title fight loss to Mackenzie Dern at UFC 330. Thomas was widely lambasted for making the moment about himself rather than supporting Robertson, leading to Din issuing an apology Monday, with Thomas describing his own behavior as “despicable.”

Strickland was one of the fighters critical of Thomas, calling him “a shit coach” (among other choice words), and he later made a post to Twitter in which he claimed Woodley, a longtime friend of Thomas, called him out in DMs.

See the alleged exchange below.

Woodley: Watch your mouth talking about Din. You have no clue wtf you talking about. We laugh all the time when you have no filter, but you a habitual line crosser. I’m ride or die about him. Don’t cross that line.

Strickland: Bro what are you gonna do?? You ain’t gonna do a damn thing lmao. Din can suck my c*ck. Weak ass b*tch.

The UFC middleweight champion also posted a screenshot of Woodley’s recent run of futility, which includes seven straight losses across MMA and boxing dating back to 2019. Strickland added the caption, “Bro let the CTE get to him and forgot his record is a red line.”

It’s unclear if Strickland fabricated this exchange, as Woodley has not publicly commented on the matter on any of his social channels outside of an Instagram Stories post sharing Thomas’ apology.

Woodley won’t be fighting Strickland in any official capacity anytime soon, but he is back in competition this week. He takes on UFC welterweight contender Joaquin Buckley in a wrestling match at RAF 12 in Cleveland this Saturday in his debut for the promotion.
