This is not yet ANOTHER attempt at reporting exactly what happened last night with Renzo Gracie.  I will, however, briefly summarize it.  Renzo Gracie was about to be attacked by two men, he pretented to be drunk, and, when the time was right, he attacked them and defended himself successfully WHILE TWEETING ABOUT IT THE WHOLE TIME!

If you want to know the specific details you can read about it here.  Otherwise, we are going to assume you are familiar with the events of the night.  This post it just to congratulate Renzo Gracie for being a hero and a bad ass dude.  I hope this serves notice for people trying to mug others, that they should be more careful.  You never know what a stranger is carrying or what he knows.  What terrible bad luck when a couple of muggers stumble upon the beast of a man that is Renzo Gracie.  

That’s a picture of Renzo Gracie’s hand after beating those two dudes.

Check out what he was tweeting while he beat the crap out of them:

3:53 AM: This one asks me why did I do that, pretending to be stupid, one little kick to the ribs makes him whine and apologize, as I’m writing this.
