UFC fighter Polyana Viana was waiting on an Uber in Rio de Janeiro when a robber threatened her and demanded her belongings. Viana said the man stated he had a gun but expressed that she thought he was lying. "He was really close to me. So I thought, âIf itâs a gun, he wonât have time to draw it,'" Viana told MMA Junkie.
Polyana sprung into action, beating the would be robber with a series of punches, kicks, and subdued him with a rear-naked choke until authorities arrived. Viana said, "Since he took the punches very quickly, I think he was scared. So he didnât react anymore. He told me to let him go, like âI just asked for the time.â I said, âAsked for the time my ass,â because he saw I was very angry. I said I wouldnât let go and that I was going to call the police." â UFC chairman Dana White shared the news on IG with a picture of Polyana and her assailant with the caption: "On the left is @polyanaviana, one of our @UFC fighters and on the right is the guy who tried to rob her #badf**kingidea"
