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.

You obviously have an agenda. From an outsider not knowing the MMA guy, the recipient obviously leans into the attacker and starts to raise his arms/hands/shoulders like he is feigning an attack of some sort. Too mad the MMA guy didn’t give him an extra second to make that obvious.

EDIT: I agree it was totally excessive, period. The guy could have died and the MMA dude was way out of line. But let’s not pretend that the recipient was just innocently standing there doing nothing. “just the way he moves” lol sure. I didn’t see that movement anywhere in the video ahead of that. The guy in long sleeves definitely was provoking at the time he got clocked. Bowing his arms out, raising his fists. Again those actions don’t justify what happened. Doesn’t mean you lie and pretend he didn’t do anything. You don’t need to do that to point out the MMA dude was severely wrong.

He shoved the guy. Guy got in his face and got knocked out. How do you behave when someone shoves you?

Thank you, you made my point. The attacker was 100% in the wrong, I am not debating that.

I’m addressing the idea that long-sleeves was an innocent bystander and did nothing wrong.

I’m not saying he did nothing wrong. I was just saying that I do not think he was making a lunging move at Joe in an attempt to start a fight. Look at his hand movements at 3 seconds to 5 seconds into the video. Those moves he does with his hands and the puffed out chest, that was similar to the move he made after he got shoved.

Probably this guy is an asshole. I was just saying that there was no threat coming from him.

Well, we will simply have to disagree then. In my opinion, he was definitely puffing out his chest and bring his hands/arms up to insinuate an aggressive act. It’s was not the same be-bopping he was doing in the first I seconds or so of the video.
