Jewish standout Natan Levy delivered a much-needed lesson to an internet troll and Neo-Nazi.
“A few days ago, some wimp on Twitter posted a picture of his slim tricep and said this is what every white nationalist should look like,” Levy says in a video posted on his YouTube channel. “This is what everybody who follows Nick Fuentes should look like.”
For those unfamiliar, Nick Fuentes is a white nationalist who is an avid denier of the Holocaust. He is also an advocate for race war and has suggested that burning women alive should be adopted in the United States.
“Somebody tagged me and I commented that he’s built like a chopstick,” Levy continued. “Definitely not a threat. Some guy jumped in the thread named Ben and he said he’s willing to come meet me to defend Nick Fuentes’ honor and come spar with me. I’m like, ‘Yeah, whatever. Come. Bring the wimp from the picture too and Dickless Fuentes. We can all meet and I’ll Venmo you some cash for the gas.”
Upon his arrival, Ben shared what brought him to the gym that day.
“Yeah, I saw one of his posts come across Twitter. It was critical of somebody who associates himself with ‘America First’ and the political values that I value,” Ben said. “As a defender of that and as a former martial arts experience trained person myself, I thought it would be fun to come spar.“
Neo-Nazi’s Demeanor Drastically Changes When Confronted by UFC Fighter Natan Levy
Before the two even stepped foot inside the cage, Ben’s demeanor took a rather hilarious turn, going from hateful Neo-Nazi on social media to a quiet and well-mannered young man when confronted by a professional fighter that could potentially tear his head off and shove it somewhere very uncomfortable. And not like the back of a Volkswagon.
Despite his change in tone, Ben stepped into the cage suggesting that he had a chance of doing little more than surviving. “He hasn’t watched film on me. I have striking. I have power. I have the size,” Ben said with a massive level of misguided confidence.
As you might have guessed, it didn’t take long for Ben to start tapping out and apologizing for his ignorant comments online. If you’d like to see a Neo-Nazi get his head pounded into the canvas, skip to 4:30 of the below embed. Though we definitely recommend watching the full video to really appreciate the beating that Levy delivers.
As Natan Levy put it, “It was a classic case of f*ck around and find out.”

Earlier this month, the UFC signed Benjamin “The Hooligan” Brinsa, a 13-0 welterweight prospect from Leipzig, Germany. That name might not mean anything to you, but for followers of the German MMA scene, it carries some very negative connotations.
True to his nickname, Brinsa is a member of the Leipzig-based hooligan group Scenario LOK. Brinsa’s MMA team, La Familia, reportedly has connections to the local Neo-Nazi scene, and Brinsa himself used to help run a mail-order service for Neo-Nazi rock music. Here are a few excerpts from German news articles that share more details about Brinsa’s questionable background and connections (rough translations via Google)…
La Familia borders on xenophobia and extremism…La Familia [is where] violent neo-Nazis from the spectrum of the “National Boys” train (JN) and the sponsors and fighters of LaFamilia are known neo-Nazis. The most famous of them is Benjamin Brinsa, a fighter [who] in the past was in combat sporting events such as the “Respect Fighting Championship” in Essen, but was discharged because of his right machinations.
Brinsa is a member of the right-hooligan group “Scenario LOK” from Leipzig and posed behind a banner reading “ultras LOK – National Resistance”. In addition, he was with Thomas Persdorf, a nationally known neo Nazi and operator of the shipment “Front Records”, registered as a director of a company that managed the site “Aryan Brotherhood”. According to information from the Leipzig anti-fascist magazine “Gamma,” he is said to have worked as a janitor in the “national center” in Leipzig-Lindenau. Brinsa received a stadium ban in Leipzig due to his violence. He and his friend Christopher “Joker” Henze, also a member of the right-hooligan group “Scenario LOK” were received with open arms by La Familia and courted as “two powerful new additions” with “aggressive fighting style”…

La Familia’s prominent members include a number of neo-Nazis [who] train there for their attacks on other people. These include several people in the “National Boys” (JN) (the NPD youth organization). Among them, Mario Alexander Müller, convicted neo-Nazi from Delmenhorst. He was recently convicted of an attack on an anti-fascists from Delmenhorst…
One of the ticket agencies and sponsors of LaFamilia “Fight Night” is the Tattoo & Piercing Studio White Skull in the street Köthener Halle-Trotha. There works Florian Jass, a neo-Nazi from the area…who participated in the neo-Nazi rally on May 01, 2011 in Halle…
On Thursday of last week, there suddenly appeared in the “Martial Arts Board,” an MMA Internet forum, an anonymous open letter titled: “Nazis during Respect Fighting Championship 7?”. It [gave] evidence that Benjamin Brinsa [belonged to] the Leipzig hooligan scene – and has close ties to Nazi scene.
In an article of the German magazine “contrasts”, also linked to the anonymous writer explains a hooded hooligan hatred of Jews, foreigners and blacks. A comparison of language and voice with an interview of the fighter Benjamin Brinsa suggests: it is the same man. [Ed. note: That part is sort of hard to parse out, but basically, a video of a masked hooligan was shown on German TV talking about his hatred of the aforementioned minority groups, and he was identified as Brinsa from his voice.]
[Respect Fighting Championship] organiser Ben Helm was initially reluctant. In “Martial Arts Board,” he explained, “we will have no room for a neo-fascist or racist fighter in RESPECT.FC,” [but] quoted at the same time from a statement that Brinsa had made to him, in that he rejects the allegations and explained to have nothing to do with Nazis. Helm left him on the fight card.
However, it lasted only one day, until the swarm intelligence of the network had further researched. Came to light: Leipzig Antifa activists have written several times about Brinsa and published photos. On we see him in a group of men behind a “fan” Poster: “ultras locomotive – National Resistance”…
Brinsa, as is apparent from the Commercial Register of the Local Court of Leipzig is also registered Managing Director of A & B UG Service, which is responsible for the site of an “Aryan Brotherhood” (Aryan Brotherhood). Co-CEO is Thomas Persdorf – and the latest on this point, the level of Nazi prominence is achieved because Persdorf was also owner of Front Records, a leading distributor of Nazi music clothing and other right accessories.
On Monday this week, [Helm] decided to take Brinsa off the fight card: “I wanted beforehand obviously a few things not quite see,” [??] confessed Helm contrite. The good fight record, the sporting successes Brinsas had been important to him. Rumors about the Brinsas’s tied to the hooligan scene he had not taken seriously, and says he regrets, because he had “absolutely no desire to [have] Nazis, either in the ring or in the audience.”
The 23-year-old middleweight fighter of “La Familia Fight Club” teams (Halle / Saale) was [removed from] the largest MMA event Respect.FC” earlier this year, after his connections in the Saxon neo- scene were detected…Moreover Brinsas hooligan group Scenario Leipzig “was belligerent together with various neo-Nazis, also members of the group in football riots. Pictures show him behind a banner reading “Ultras locomotive – National Resistance”. For Respect.FC organizer Ben Helm that was enough: He made it clear that he was “absolutely no desire [have] to Nazis, either in the ring or in the audience,” The influential German-language martial arts portal “Groundandpound” welcomed the decision at the time, but also quoted Brinsa as saying “I’m not a Nazi.” Given the facts, a preposterous claim.
Even though German MMA promoters have started to keep their distance from Brinsa, “The Hooligan” somehow managed to land a contract with the biggest MMA promotion in the world. You’d think that Zuffa would have learned its lesson about not doing basic background checks on its fighters. Brinsa is not the kind of the person that should be representing the UFC, and we hope the promotion re-considers the signing once they learn a little more about his past associations.
Update #1: UFC president Dana White tweeted earlier today that he’s “looking into it,” in response to one of his followers sending him this story. White later deleted the tweet.

The next likely Soviet serial killer, Vyacheslav Datsik won’t be getting out of jail for at least six months, thanks to the foresight of a St. Petersburg appeals court who rejected the batshit crazy former fighter’s request for early release and house arrest.
According to a report from RapsiNews.com, officials believe that the Neo-Nazi Russian, who was the first of many fighters to knock out Andrei Arlovski, poses a major flight risk and that he will almost certainly resume his criminal activities if he is released. Datsik escaped incarceration from a St. Petersburg mental institution in 2010 and fled to Norway where he was arrested carrying a loaded handgun. Prior to his arrest, members of the white extremist group he belongs to told reporters that he told them he would never be taken alive, but later relented and turned himself into Oslo police, asking them for asylum. He was extradited back to his home country where he has been detained ever since.
(Heil SpongeBob!)

Prior to his arrest, members of the white extremist group he belongs to told reporters that he told them he would never be taken alive, but later relented and turned himself into Oslo police, asking them for asylum. He was extradited back to his home country where he has been detained ever since.
Datsik was arrested in Russia in 2007 and accused of robbing cell phones shops in St. Petersburg and setting a church on fire. Psychiatrists assessing his mental state prior to his incarceration diagnosed him with schizophrenia, absolving him of criminal liability for the robberies, but they labeled the 32-year-old dangerous to society. A follow-up examination he underwent in November proved that he was in fact mentally sane.
Apparently Datsik’s lawyers had an independent lab in Italy test him for craziness and the test came back clean. Seems legit.
(He’s NOT crazy? Next you’re going to tell me that Koscheck isn’t an asshole.)
Well, Vyacheslav Datsik’s case took a bizarre turn last week.
According to Dagbladet.no, the Russian Neo-Nazi has now been granted asylum in Norway just weeks after rep…
(He’s NOT crazy? Next you’re going to tell me that Koscheck isn’t an asshole.)
The latest development came as a Norwegian police psychiatrist ruled last week that Datsik is not insane as he was diagnosed as being by Russian prison psychiatric testing he underwent after being found guilty.
Because of the diagnosis, Datsik was never sentenced to jail in the former Soviet Union as he would be kept in the hospital indefinitely.
According to the report, officials in Norway say they will allow the former MMA fighter to stay in the country until they Russian authorities answer Datsik’s claims that he was purposefully misdiagnosed as being insane to keep him locked up because of his extreme racist Neo-Nazi leanings.
