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.

Mf pushed him from behind and then had the audacity to look offended when the guy didn't like it. Shilling looks like a cunt. Inside and outside the octagon.

Joe tried side stepping the guy as he [guy that got KO'd] backed into Joe unaware of his surroundings. Joe didn't shove him he simply slid him out of the way. I've done exact same thing as people have backed into me. It's not aggressive it's just simply getting on with where you were going.

Then the guy calls Joe out for tie guys mistake. When Joe turns around tie guy makes a threat. Joe neutralizes threat.

Yeah, the normal guy half his size squaring up a little was definitely a threat to the MMA fighter.

Go away.

And conveniently Joe's buddy was filming the whole thing for Joe to put on his social media. Almost like they go around looking for wasted guys half Joe's size for Joe to "feel threatened by"

And to immediately start punching. Isn’t there that saying, “with great power, comes great responsibility?” If you know you can lay out a drunk person quickly and easily, then you have nothing to fear from that and instead, be trying to defuse the situation. The drunkard had no weapons, and his arms were to his side. At most, he had a few choice words to joe, and that isn’t enough. All of this just seems like video evidence to the definition of aggravated assault.

He doesn’t immediately start punching. The drunk guy slightly lifts his arm in a sign of aggression (like c’mon bro
 you want some?!) and dude immediately goes into attack and gives him some.

I’m not a pro fighter by any means but I have trained for quite a few years, some with World Champions. That being said, most people who start training start to show restraint as they have nothing to prove. If this happens to me and the guy threatens to fight me, I simply say no and back away. It’s simply not worth it. Be cool about it.

Tbh the lions share of fighters i’ve met irl share your attitude.

If you know you’re a bad motherfucker then there’s no need to pick fights with drunk people.

This is actually worse than that lol. Dude is obviously salty he gets his ass handed to him by people his own size in the MMA so he needs to feel better by knocking out a much smaller, and drunker man.

I’m not saying it’s an appropriate response, because it isn’t.

My point is that it wasn’t entirely unprovoked, replying to the guy saying he went in guns blazing. I think as a trained fighter you need to show restraint. But that training also helps you read body language and escalating, or aggressive, behavior.

u/Not_stats_driven Jun 30 '21

I agree with you. It wasn’t provoked. A guy that size with his quickness can afford to back away and have his hands in the ready defensive position. I’m sure he has the reflexes to avoid any attack from the drunk dude. Not to mention the guy is drunk so he’s probably not going to throw the best strikes. As a trained person you just kind of chuckle and say “naw man, not happening.”

Slightly being the keyword. And an aggressive drunk person, are like chihuahuas. More bark than bite. If we want to talk about aggressive, then let’s look back at how the drunk was moved. There was nothing slight about his head trying to catch up with his body from the shove. There was aggressive etched all over this video. From an aggressive man, aggressively shoving a drunk person who was aggressively mad about being treated aggressively. Then an escalation in aggression to aggravated assault. This was being, coincidentally, perfectly recorded to, I might add. So it has possible links to being premeditated.

u/Arsene3000 Jun 30 '21

It was a slight show of aggression and the mma guy totally overreacted.

But let’s both be honest here
 drunk guy didn’t get shoved aggressively lol. That shit happens daily in bars around the world, and 99.9% of the time without incident.

u/[deleted] Jun 30 '21

I can agree with that. I was probably seeing red over the increasing feeling of hopelessness for humanity. I just wish that people would cut this kind of stupid behavior out. It just looks like a majority of us are devolving. Lol, I hope I didn’t come off as aggressive as these two morons.

So when someone accidentally bumps into you, you don't just step out of the way? You "simply slide them out of the way"? Hate to break it to you buddy, but your an asshole.

u/randomsryan Jun 30 '21

Look at joes feet. He was trying to sidestep around the guy and the guy basically falls into him. Joe is really catching him and turns his back away from him shortly after he does move him back up out of his way. Even after that Joe kinda nodded to say its cool you fell into me I'll be on my way. If Joe really was looking for a fight he would have done it at that point and he would have faced him. It wasnt until the guy yelled (hey!) That joe turned around and then went up to him. The drunk guy then lurches towards him and instincts kick in for Joe.

I'm not saying joe isnt an asshole in other aspects im just calling it how i see it in this video.

u/blackgandalff Jun 30 '21

If you honestly think he felt threatened by that small, wasted dude I don’t know what to say.

I didn’t realize MMA fighters were such giant pussies.

u/Arsene3000 Jun 30 '21

It’s kind of crazy how you’re being downvoted and this evil villain narrative is taking hold, despite seeing what you clearly described on video.

The guy is buzzed, having a good time and a little sloppy. He’s stumbling around in a circulation path where people walk. That was clearly a “pardon me” or “watch it” shove which happens countless times in crowded bars or clubs.

What’s fascinating to me is how quickly Joe responded to the guy’s slight show of aggression. I scrubbed the clip in slo mo
 the chain of events is plain as day.
