Not only can he beat up the baddest dudes on the planet, but Ben Rothwell is also a total nutjob.
The UFC heavyweight got the upset victory on Saturday night by submitting Matt Mitrione with a front choke in the first stanza.
Big Ben capitalised on a poorly executed takedown attempt by Meathead to lock in the choke and force his floundering opponent to frantically tap out with both hands.
As if that wasn’t scary enough, Rothwell then gave an extremely odd Octagon interview after the fight which ended with him laughing maniacally in Jon Anik’s face. While what he said wasn’t all that terrifying, it did leave us seriously concerned over his mental well-being.
Check out Rothwell’s unusual Octagon interview in the video embedded below.
Stay weird, @RothwellFighter. Stay weird. #UFCNolahttps://t.co/QX1PjdCcR2
