A video of former UFC featherweight Jason Knight fighting two men in a bathroom stall has been doing the rounds on the internet for quite some time now. Knight had his last outing in the UFC in 2018 against Jordon Rinaldi before and was subsequently released by the promotion. After his UFC career, he got associated with the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship where he headlined BKFC 5 in an epic encounter against Artem Lobov in his debut fight. Knight lost the thrilling war via a unanimous decision. After his debut loss, the fighter was scheduled to take on another former UFC star Leonard Garcia, but a rib injury forced him out of the fight. However, on Sunday, Knight made a successful comeback in his much-anticipated rematch by defeating former rival Artem Lobov in a one-sided fight.

Brok Weaver, who is a friend and training partner of the former UFC star recently took to his Twitter handle and posted a video of Jason Knight throwing hands with two guys in a bathroom stall. The former UFC star has since opened up on the situation and revealed that the video was, in fact, a year old. He recalled the whole incident and spoke about how a guy was complaining about his girlfriend to which he had made a comment. The joke did not sit well with the two guys, who then cornered him in his stall. With the situation escalating, Jason Knight threw the first punch and the rest is history. Knight also explained that a lot has changed since then and that he would not repeat something like that.
