Middle-Aged Spectator Steps In MMA Cage with 21-Year-Old Fighter, Teaches Him Respect for Elders

At Saturday's Fire Extreme Fighting MMA event in Kankakee, Illinois, a 53-year-old spectator who goes by "Tim" agreed, apparently on a whim, to replace a no-show fighter in a match against an opponent half his age.

He had one hour to prepare.

Not much is known about either the dark nag or his 21-year-old rival, but one thing is certain: Tim made sure that whippersnapper never steps foot on his lawn again.
