Brian Ortega is a man who believes in consequences.

It’s no secret that MMA fans can, at times, get a little too familiar with fighters, talking copious amounts of trash to them through the safety of the internet. Recently, a number of fighters have made a habit out of teaching some of those fans a lesson, and now “T-City” can count himself among that group.

On Tuesday, Ortega posted a video to social media where he had a light-hearted confrontation with a fan, Emi, who talked trash to him on Fortnite. Ortega flew out to North Carolina to meet Emi and then put him to sleep with a rear-naked choke.

“A lot of people ask me, ‘Hey, play with me on Fortnite!’ Cool, cool. Only problem is, you guys be talking mad you-know-what,” Ortega said. “So I had a homie, an online homie, start talking mad smack. The real reason why I flew to North Carolina is because he was talking shit, we made a bet. I said, ‘Bro, I’ll fly over there and choke you out.’ Here he is. I showed up. I showed up to his damn job. Had to wait for him to finish his job, so now I’m going to choke your ass out. A bet’s a bet. You going to go to sleep?”

“Yes,’” Emi responded.

Ortega then applied a fully locked in rear-naked choke to the fan and squeezed until he passed out. After a few seconds, the young man then woke up and flashed a peace sign.

“Shit, man! I took a nap! That felt weird! [Laughing] That shit was kinda fun!”

This was Ortega’s first submission win since losing to Diego Lopes at UFC 306.
