Roger “El Matador” Huerta might not be fighting in the UFC anymore but he can still kick ass. Huerta was outside a bar in Austin, TX when he saw a big dude knock a girl out. Huerta, who fights now for Bellator, saw the incident and confronted the guy that was at least 40 lbs heavier than him. TMZ captured the fight but it can’t be clearly seen who really knocked out the assailant but you can see Huerta still punching the guy after he’s already knocked out.
I never really liked Huerta when he fought in the UFC. I thought UFC tried to protect him by giving him easy opponents and his comments after his losses made him sound egotistical. But having seen the video, I have to respect the guy. It looked like he didn’t know the girl but the man’s action just pissed him off. It was surprising to me how tense Huerta looked though, he was jumping up and down before the fight. I thought fighters would be much more calmer going into a fight but I guess in the street, the adrenaline is still there.

Yea, good stuff. Huerta didn’t even think twice about approaching the big guy, I would have loved to see the actual KO though!
