Two thieves tried robbing a woman of her cellphone in Brazil, but there was one problem: the woman was an MMA fighter (video below).

MMA Strawweight Monique Bastos was heading to the gym in the city of Acailandia when the two would-be thieves approached her and stole her cellphone, Uproxx reported.

One of the men was able to get away but the other was not so lucky. Bastos caught the accomplice, knocked him to the ground, and put him in a "triangle choke."

The incident was caught on camera (video below), and uploaded on Reddit Wednesday morning. The man is heard crying for his parents and claiming his innocence, according to a rough translation from a Reddit user.

Important lesson learned here for the thugs: next time, just crack the target over the head with a hammer first, or stick a knife in her a couple times.  Since she didn't kill him, they now will refine their technique.
