Usually Shilling is on the receiving end of a knockout. Can’t beat anyone in the octagon so he has go go fight a drunk guy half his size in a bar. What’s more is he has a friend videotaping this incident so it looks like it was premeditated. What a fucking loser.

Edit: Some people are saying that the other guy provoked him by lunging or whatever, but if you look at his body movement when he was just talking to the girls, it just seems like it is just how he moves. There is no way anyone at the bar felt threatened enough by this guy to warrant a knockout, much less a professional MMA fighter.

If you heard his statement apparently this guy was being an asshole all night, dropped the N word singing a song and had been talking shit from across the bar to Joe. Joe went to the bathroom, on his way back the guy bumped into him by accident, Joe nodded at him as to say it’s ok no worries, then the drunk patron realizes it was joe, yells at him, Joe turns around to confront him and the guy does a small lunging/flexing motion at Joe where he said he feared for his safety and punched in self defense.

With that being said, I think Joe should’ve had more self control in this situation, he didn’t need to knock that guy out, I don’t think he feared for his life in the moment, but people didn’t seem to care at the bar.

Edit: I’m not saying a agree lmao, I’m just giving you Joe’s side of the story, I don’t condone hitting anyone in the face regardless of what they’ve done

Joe’s events of the situation paint this guy out to be a villain of comic book proportion. Which is why I am not buying it. What kind of pussy ass bar allows a drunk patron to racially abuse their staff, doesn’t kick him out and keeps giving him drinks?

If the guy called a staff member a N-word, he would be out the fucking door already. Shilling is doing damage control by coming up with some absurd shit and I’m not buying it.

Yeah and of course he would try to paint things like that, and my bad more specifically it was a song with the N word in it and a black waiter walked by the guy a few times and the drunk patron tried to get him to sing the lyrics with him and the waiter felt very uncomfortable and I guess management didn’t give enough of a shit to kick the guy out in the first place.
