Another week, another fighter took down a burglar. And no it’s not Kevin Holland. This time it’s combat sports legend Melvin Manhoef.
Details
On Monday, three burglars fu*ked with the wrong house. According to the Dutch outlet, Vechtsport Info the burglars had been hanging around Manhoef’s house while he was in Paris, France, where he is scheduled to compete next, and had already attempted to break in.
On their second attempt to break into Manhoef’s home, this time in Landsmeer, Netherlands, it did not end well. Manhoef reportedly chased down the three burglars, running them off the road, smashed their windows with his bare hands, pulled them from the car, and waited until the police arrived.
Yep, Manhoef went straight ‘Batman’.
It is unclear at the moment if Manhoef suffered any injuries.
