Training partners or casual gym goers.

With the Neer story circulating I thought it would be interesting to see how many times this sort of thing has happened... Like Reem hurting partners, or didn't Wandy really step it up against a guy who hit him hard in the gym?

There are a lot of Lombard stories.

Also a Kos video of him fighting a guy if I believe. Will have a look if I can find it

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Neer didn't beat down his training partner, but some keyboard warrior.
 
Lombard is a notorious gym bully. Josh Barnett put a beating on him after one incident too many.

Matt Brown blasted his grappling coach recently, of course, and a few people who had trained with him have been coming out on reddit to say he was "that guy" in the gym in terms of being someone who would agree to spar light then try to KO you.

I think his training partner was the keyboard warrior (he was dissing Neer with messages, most likely), this is what I've been reading so far from the forums, so it might not be accurate, at all.
 
Go watch some Lombard open workouts and see for yourself.
 
Cro Cop once shared a story in a TV interview.
A big young dude came into his gym and asked if he could be Mirko's sparring partner for the day. They looked at him, saw he was a huge beast and said OK. So they go into the ring and this guy kicks Mirko in the nuts. Mirko says WTF and warns the guy about it. They restart and the guy again kicks/knees him in the groin. Then Mirko got really pissed and LHKd him to the hospital.
The epilogue is that after the guy spent several days recovering he went back to his neighborhood and bragged to all his friends how he was treated to the famous LHK. :D
 
Dustin dropped some kid with a hard body shot. It was some mtv show!
 
This one always cracks me up



that doesnt look like sparring to me, it looks like a fight. ive watched a bunch of sparring videos and its nothing like this, which looked like full contact.


i used to beat up ninjas too but then i took a shuriken in the ACL
