Some pranksters dressed in Cobra Kai uniforms thought it would be funny to interrupt a class in a BJJ academy and challenge the instructor and the students to a fight… What they didn’t realize is that he is an old school bjj guy with some MMA experience. The BJJ instructor actually thought it was funny and even cute, and answered their challenge the way a grown man would talk to a child.
He told the Cobra Kai black belt to fight his brown belt student…

An unrelated prank also happened As 3rd degree BJJ black belt Arvin ‘Ace’ Panlasigui was busy teaching kids class at his academy Lotus Club BJJ in Miami, Florida, these 2 pranksters thought it would be funny to interrupt his class and challenge the instructor to a fight… The instructor walso an old school bjj guy who has fought MMA… But this time, he didn’t appreciate them invading his space and asked them to leave. When they insisted, he had to put on the pressure.

This prank is eerily similar to a deleted scene from Cobrai Kai tv show.
Cobra Kai is set 34 years after the original Karate Kid film, when a middle-aged Johnny Lawrence reopens the Cobra Kai karate dojo and rebuilds his old rivalry with Daniel LaRusso.
In this scene, the Karate instructor goes to hand out flyers in front of a BJJ academy, trying to poach students. When he is confronted by “Master Todd”, the BJJ instructor, a fight almost breaks out.
