I just saw this on another forum and thought some one here may want to see it. Some guy knocks out this woman and Huerta makes him pay. It is a beautiful thing. Much respect to Huerta.
27-year-old Huerta -- who was once featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated -- was in front of a bar in Austin around 2 AM on Saturday morning ... when some other people began fighting. Roger was near the scuffle ... when he saw one of the men involved punch a female who was standing near the ruckus.
Once Huerta sees the woman collapse to the ground -- he instantly tries to confront the attacker saying, "You just punched a f**kin' girl."
Moments later, Huerta takes off his shirt ... slams his hat to the ground ... and rushes after the man.
Chaos ensues and people scramble after the fighters, blocking the camera -- but seconds later ... a shirtless Huerta can be seen finishing his attack on the other man ... who is sprawled out on the street.
People rush in to aid the bloody man on the ground -- who eventually gets off the pavement -- as Huerta walks away from the battle ground.
Austin PD tells TMZ that officers were called to the scene -- but so far, no arrests have been made.
Huerta's manager tells us, "I have not spoken to Roger yet about this incident, but I can say that it's in his nature to be very protective of women."
Wow! Part of me says it's dumb for a fighter to go off on some normal dude (he could get harsher punishment), but the other half of me says good for him.
You know there are moments when a woman needs to be ut in here place, but when you are a huge MFer like that guy was and you cheap shot anybody esp a tiny woman then you deserve wht you get. I always liked Roger, wish he would come back
You're right, but too bad Huerta is no longer with the UFC.
Edit: After watching the video, Roger was defending a woman. No, you can't legally beat on someone, but Roger did what any man in his situation should've done.
Like I said in the other thread in General, part of me thinks that was foolish of him, but the other part of me says good for him. He's going to get judged harshly though by the courts. Trained cage fighter beating the mess out of some guy who was running from him? Yeeouch. Plus, it doesn't even look like he messed up the dude who hit the woman.
I hate to play the devil's advocate here, but I am almost certain Huerta will face legal charges for that. While it may have been deserved and very satisfying, I do know that when you treat another human being's head like a soccer ball, it's not well received by authorities, no matter what happened prior. That guy was gone. I wouldn't be surprised if Huerta killed him.
How do you know what happened? I could only see Huerta stomping a guy.
Nevertheless, one stomp by a pro MMA fighter to an unarmed man lying on the ground is too much. He should just have beat the guy up with a few punches.
Yikes, Huerta is a spicy guy to get in a tustle with, let alone a Huerta who may be a little drunk, not cutting weight, and has a 5 girl entourage to impress.
He loves women, he would never dare let a man get away with that.
He's easily in my top 5 all time favorites. I hope he doesn't get in trouble.
I am 100% behind Huerta on this one!
Even if they say it's not normal for a professional fighter to use his skills against normal people.
But it's not normal for a 220lbs+ man (maybe even more) to punch a woman like that.
That's just a retarded act.
Damn coward was running scared as hell when Huerta approached him.
Man I really like Huerta and think that was great and very respectable. Well done Roger.
That being said he is in BIG trouble, soccer kicking and stomping someone unconscious gets you in trouble, when you have history as a great MMA and UFC fighter, that lands you in deep shit.
HAHA!
I've started a different thread on the same subject, in the Smacktalk Section, at the same time (1 minute later maybe).
I will say this again.
Professional fighters shouldn't use their skills against untrained, unskilled people. But sometimes, from time to time, a douche like this one comes along and askes for it.
Congratulations Roger!:thumbsup:
Major props to Roger on this one. I have zero respect for any scum that would hit a woman, no matter what she said. He'll take the punishment like a man, and hopefully the judge sees it was 100% justified, and yes, it was justified. The dude cold cocked a female from behind.
I agree the dude deserved it, but still, that's not how society works.
And to those who said "defending the woman" - that wasn't defense. That was revenge. When a dude is literally running away, what is there to defend against? Getting in between the guy and her, and using physical force (aka whipping ass) to keep her away = defense. Chasing a dude down and curb stomping him? Revenge.
Im with Roger 100% here... and it isnt like Roger was picking on some dude half his size for no reason. That black dude was a huge fuc and to top it off side blinded a girl. What Huerta did is an amazing thing to see. People dont stick up for others enough anymore.. its always pretending like they didnt see it.
Yeah, I agree with you 100%. I'm not saying he didn't mess SOME guy up. He just didn't mess the RIGHT guy up. The dude who hits the woman is in an orange shirt. When the camera comes back to Huerta getting off a downed victim, the dude is not wearing an orange shirt and a dude in an orange shirt is running off.
It looks like Huerta beat the mess out of the wrong guy, or at least some guy who tried to help his friend.
Either way, I respect Huerta standing up for people who need help, but you can't go around pulverizing people. Call the cops, protect the woman from further harm, and let the dude do serious time. You can't go around dispensing street justice.
He messed the right guy up. The dude with the orange/yellow shirt takes the shirt of and fights Roger in a undershirt. You can clearly see his friend over him later in the video. Roger put the beating to the guy who knocked out the girl.
I'm extremely glad that the camera man caught the first part of the video, I can't imagine what would happen to Roger if the video just had him just chasing and beating up someone.
This is justice in it's purest form. You cheap shot a girl as hard as you can, 2 seconds later you've got El Matador stomping your head into the asphalt rofl. He'll probably go to court but if the judge has a wife or has ever had any significant other, they'll probably understand that this dude was the douchebag of douchebags and probably just have Huerta pay a small fine. Maybe this girl was bitch but unless she was physically trying to kill you or did something terrible to your family, I personally can't justify hitting a chick. I've wanted to hit girls many times because let's face it, there's a lot of dumb broads out there, but you never actually pull the trigger.
I too am afraid that Huerta will be getting into serious trouble soon.
No, a man should never (exceptional situations apart) hit a woman.
Yes, Huerta excercised revenge, street justice on the guy.
That is not tolerated, and not tolerable.
To top it off, the authorities will give him a harsher punishment because he is a professional fighter...
All in all, people will remember him giving the dude what he deserved.
I'm afraid a jury will remember a trained cage fighter kicking a downed guy in the head at a bar/club...
