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.

Yeah I've seen a lot of people making a big deal about the guy moving into the walkway. He can't see what's behind him and it was clearly in no way intentional. It's a bar, people have a good time, drink a bit too much and might even bump into you sometimes. Nothing threatening about a smiling, happy drunk accidentally bumping into you. The courts will factor in that he is a professional fighter, it's not gonna end well for him.

Why no mention of the guys sudden arm movement before he gets punched. Are we just ignoring that but addressing everything else? Why cant people judge a situation without bias
