Crime might not pay, but the entertainment value of justice served on a silver platter? That’s priceless! A person who engages in such behavior must face punishment, as shown in a viral video circulating on social media.

The thief wore a look of deep and painful regret as he got pounded. Uploaded on X by the page ‘JCFIGHTS’, the video already has close to 600k views.

Thief gets delivered MMA-styled justice on the street

It started with the thief getting a bad blow to his nose with the man’s elbow. Adding to the drama was the comical sound effects of the video, which played the Super Mario theme as he fell to the floor.

That was perhaps the only light-hearted moment in what was otherwise a violent video. The man unleashed a flurry of MMA-like punches as the thief tried his best to defend himself.

When the punches didn’t work, he resorted to using his feet. The man kicked the kicked brutally in the face, which even made the cameraman go “Oh s**t!” He stood up and tried to run away, but the man was in no mood for mercy.

He caught him, hurled abuses at him, and attacked him even more. The thief pleaded for mercy as he kept pounding him with punches, and he once again stood up to make an escape. His nose and head were bleeding from the MMA-style beat down.
