This is hard to watch

Josh Neer took things a little bit too far trying to teach an internet bully a lesson

A video has been doing the rounds on social media of former UFC fighter Josh “The Dentist” Neer absolutely annihilating some randomer in his gym.

The unidentified man takes a serious amount of punishment during the 14-second clip eating some massive elbows and receiving a nasty soccer kick to the face. Neer was unrelenting in the video and looked like he had no intention of calling the beat down to a halt until two people intervened and broke it up.

Neer revealed the story behind the clip to Bloody Elbow. He explained how the man was abusing him on Facebook and requesting a fight with him.

‘Basically the guys a dumbass and been talking shit about MMA fighters for a month. On and on, I usually ignore him but this Saturday he wrote me on Facebook the message I gave. He had written 10 messages to me talking shit which I ignored, but this time I said if you really want to fight come to the gym Monday at 5:30.

‘I don’t know what his problem is but he’s a big guy, like 6-6 and 270 pounds and just acts like a bully. That what he seems like to me, just a bully.

‘He showed up at 6:10, 40 mins into my practice. And then I asked him if he wanted to fight Rakim (Cleveland) or me and Rakim is bigger then me so of course he chose me.
