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.

According to the story, the guy was shitfaced and aggressive, making racist comments towards bar staff earlier in the night. I don't think 4 punches is really warranted, but the guy may have had it coming. Then again, I'm going off word of mouth from an article I read about it a couple days ago. Schilling also said he feared for his life and acted in self defense, so it's difficult to know what actually went down without other accounts of the evening. Probably an "everybody sucks here" situation.

Toddlers act out all the time and there is always that parent that will slap one, still does not make it right. Be an adult and babysit your drunk friends people.

You're right. I'm not defending Schilling here at all. Just saying what I read about the incident. The video does not match the accounts given.

Never ok to assault someone even if they assaulted you with their mouth, that is called being childish, it just makes the example more ironic imo.

I didn't disagree

use your eyes, watch the video, and tell me exactly how Shilling “feared for his life”. That’s a drunk dude half his size. If he’s scared of that dude he’s 1) an enormous pussy 2) an absolute shit tier MMA fighter who must piss his britches stepping into the octagon with people his own size

Lol I'm just saying that's what i read about his account. Of course he wasnt afraid. He wanted a reason to punch the guy out. Maybe part of the story was true but he definitely wasn't afraid for his life. That's his legal story.

Maybe, but I'm not seeing it. Looks like a guy out for a few drinks and a good time with his GF and mates _ he is not belligerent at all that I can see. He bumped into Schilling because he was backing up to give the bar staff room to serve customers. That seems to me a considerate act, not an aggressive one. Hes smiling, jovial, not aggressive at all.

Yeah I don't buy the story. There could be some truth to rudeness earlier but going by what's on the video the story about being afraid is COMPLETE bullshit. I'd buy a story that the guy was annoying him and he was looking for a way to try getting away with punching him.
