Only on the tough beaches in Brazil.. glad he only suffered a black eye and a stolen cell phone

MMA > Judo.

If he knew something about striking, he may have avoided the black eye.

BTW, Brazilian media apparently claimed he was hit by girl. I guess they are trying to make Brazilians look tougher....

"It said that his phone was stolen late Monday on the popular strip and that he was hit as he was chasing the local thief."

A tabloid title is misleading?! Shocking.

He was probably drunk celebrating his medal
