Omari Garland, the man accused of pistol-whipping and robbing a 70-year-old Asian man in Fairfield last month, allegedly picked a fight with another Asian man at a gym in California.
The Train 4 Life Center in Suisun City explained that Garland allegedly walked into the martial arts gym, signed a waiver to train and decided to pick on an opponent not of his own size, according to a post on their Instagram account.
“He then decided to threaten a much smaller man, one of our coaches saying, ‘I’ll beat you down,’” the caption for the post read. “Now, every last week of the month is spar week here at [Train 4 Life]. So, we let them spar and he quickly learned he messed with the wrong one, called Time-Out in the 1st round with 1:30 left on the clock.”
The "smaller man" that Garland challenged was Terrance “Wrong Turn” Saeteurn, a pro MMA fighter ranked 132nd in the Pro Men’s Flyweight division in the U.S.
In a video of the match, Garland can be seen calling for a timeout shortly after the fight with Saeteurn starts. The individual recording can then be heard saying, “You come into my gym, you call out the smallest guy in my gym, and now you want to call a timeout?” before demanding Garland leave the gym.

Filipino American MMA fighter takes down NYC man accused of six separate unprovoked attacks
(https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/_FKzBA8VysbdlED2BQJYew--/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTUxMDtjZj13ZWJw/https://s.yimg.com/uu/api/res/1.2/iEItdEU4WdhJDIc1S6hwkw--~B/aD00MjU7dz04MDA7YXBwaWQ9eXRhY2h5b24-/https://media.zenfs.com/en/nextshark_articles_509/f59926371fcf7fe03bc1df1d6f63f810)
A Filipino American mixed martial artist reportedly stopped an attacker after witnessing him hit another man in an unprovoked attack in New York City.
Ro Malabanan, a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, was heading to work when saw a homeless man, later identified as 28-year-old Samuel Frazier, sucker-punch a construction worker in SoHo on July 27, according to reports.
Witnesses informed Malabanan that Frazier had also attacked other men before the construction worker, prompting the mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter to chase after the man.
“My jiu-jitsu instincts just kicked in. I jumped on his back,” Malabanan said in a video posted to his Instagram. “He tried to swing me off then, but a seatbelt position dragged him down to the floor, and I immediately took his back and pinned him to the ground.”
