37-year-old American fighter Joe Schilling spent the best days of his career in kickboxing, but he also recorded ten professional MMA fights (4-6 ratio). He won several titles in Muay Thai and Kickboxing, and in 2013 he won the GLORY middleweight tournament. His last appearance was in 2019, and Tony Johnson knocked him out in an MMA fight under the auspices of Bellator. In late October last year, Bellator announced that Joe Schilling was no longer part of their promotion.
A video in which the mentioned Schilling participates in a physical confrontation started circulating on the Internet today. It is currently unknown where and when exactly the recording was made.
The unfortunate man from the video is a visitor to the bar, and he found himself on the way to a well-known fighter who pushed him away so that he could continue on his way.
Obviously, the repulsed man threw something at him because such repulsion did not suit him best, and Joe Schilling did not show the slightest patience. He dealt several blows to a guy and brutally knocked him out.

The video was also posted on Joe Schilling’s official Instagram profile but was soon removed for violating the rules of that social network. A fighter nicknamed “Stitch ’em Up” announced himself in a new post, writing:
“It seems that this country no longer cares about self-defense. Don’t worry, I got the video. I love you people, thank you for your concern and support during this life-threatening experience. Many thanks to The Yard Muay Thai club for preparing me for such a dangerous situation” – the legendary kickboxer is quite sarcastic.
At the end of the post, the hashtag “fuck racists” is visible, but more details are currently unknown. On the internet, there are stories circulating about how the guy in the suit was being racist and pretty vulgar, but it’s still unconfirmed.
It could be said that Schilling did the last fight in that bar, not in Bellator, but considering the opponent, we can hardly consider this situation a fight. Joke aside, a professional fighter could have reacted somewhat milder in a situation like this.
