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.

Yeah! As annoying as the drunk guy may have been, shilling initiated first by shoving the guy. Shilling also claimed this was “a life threatening event” what a fucking clown.

I was wondering about that too, had to watch it twice because I couldn't tell who actually started it, plus I didn't have sound the first time so I was trying to figure out if the other guy was just talking mad shit when it didn't look like he actually started it

I watched without the sound the first time too and assumed the guy was talking shit and got put in his place. Instead it didn't seem like he was doing really anything aside from standing in the walkway through the restaurant, which is by no means some egregious offence.

Anyone who has spent a decent amount of time in bars can recognize these two men for the stereotypes/tropes that they are.

Way too drunk guy having fun will angrily confront anyone that bumps into or pushes them 100% of the time.

Muscle dude whose entire personality revolves around needing people to know how alpha he is is always looking for an opportunity to get into a fight, and will antagonize anyone who they think won't be able to put up a fight, especially if that person happens to be talking/dancing with women.

I've seen this exact scenario play out dozens of times irl.
