‘TikTok Prankster’ Gets Leon Edwards-Like Headkick in Return for Prank Involving a Lady and MMA Fans Are Having a Field Day

Sometimes, social media pranksters go too far in their quest for likes and views. These content creators often cross the line, targeting the wrong people for their stunts. However, there are those with zero tolerance for such behavior, and these pranksters quickly learn their lesson. Many times, they encounter someone who knows how to handle themselves, like a martial artist or MMA fighter, who wastes no time putting them in their place. And given the impact promotions like the UFC, Bellator, etc. have on people today, you never know who turns out to be a regular practitioner.

People enjoy seeing them get put in their place, and recently another such incident took place in Beverly Hills, California. In this case, a TikTok prankster pushed a random man onto a woman standing on the roadside for the sake of his content. However, he made a grave mistake as the man he pushed was clearly well-versed in the art of kicking, and he responded with a taste of his own medicine in UFC star Leon Edwards‘ way.

As the video of the incident surfaced on Reddit, fight fans came together to laud the individual who put the prankster in his place. They found it satisfying to see someone not putting up with this bizarre trend in the name of content creation.
