Theo Von recounts calling cops during Dustin Poirier and Max Holloway's fight over "jewelry": "Male-on-male domestic down!"
Stand-up comedian Theo Von recalled a hilarious incident from UFC 236 when he attended the Dustin Poirier vs. Max Holloway fight. Watching both fighters beating each other up, he decided to call the cops.
Poirier took on Holloway in the main event of UFC 236 and secured the interim lightweight belt in a brutal back-and-forth fight, winning by unanimous decision. The event took place on April 13, 2019, at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia.
In episode #549 of his YouTube podcast, Theo Von invited singer-songwriter Koe Wetzel to discuss partying too much and doing some wild things.
During their conversation, the stand-up comedian revealed his unusual habit of calling the cops on himself after partying. He then reminisced about a hilarious incident from UFC 236 and said:
"I couldn't handle it, dude. I call the cops on myself a bunch of times. I call the cops for anything, dude. I see... yeah, I remember I was at a UFC fight one night, and the guys were beating each other so bad, and I called the cops right there from T-Mobile Arena. It was Dustin Poirier and Max Holloway beating the hell out of each other."
He continued and revealed what he said to the cops:
“I said, 'Y'all got a male-on-male domestic down here.' I said, These guys are fighting over jewelry down here. I think the winner got the belt.”
