BJJ black belt and ADCC Hall of Famer Renzo Gracie was seemingly involved in an altercation at an NYC subway station earlier this week. Video posted by reddit user u/fxwhiteo and further circulated by BJJ Instagram page choke_lab shows Renzo to be tripped by a bystander near him, only for the MMA legend to counter with a body lock before making his way to mount.
Locking in an arm triangle, the man allegedly gives a verbal tap as the video ends. His identity unconfirmed at first, Renzo soon commented on choke_lab’s Instagram post seemingly confirming it was him.
