Virgil Zwicker got warmed up for Bellator fight by beating up would-be car thief

There was no need for Virgil Zwicker to go to the gym last Friday. He got all the work in he needed on the reservation.

The Bellator MMA light heavyweight was home at the San Pasqual Indian Reservation in Southern California all of 20 minutes before his car got stolen. Zwicker called the cops -- something he might not have done in the past -- but then proceeded to seek out the thief.

Zwicker found the guy at a nearby store buying booze. The rough-and-tumble MMA fighter nicknamed "Rez Dog" got his car back and taught the would-be crook a lesson in the process.
