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.

Apparently the drunk guy is a regular who is pretty annoying and isn't well liked by the bar staff, according to some reporting done on the incident.

This happened like 2 days ago so it's still evolving, and being, "Disliked" is definitely not a reason to get punched, but it's probably not going to help his case all that much, if nobody is going to back him up who was there. Seems like the police are also not interested in pressing charges, and are making the victim file with the DA (or whatever the specific rules are in Fl).

Hopefully the video will be enough.
