So about that time Renato 'Babalu' was almost arrested for peeing in public? Allow Alex Davis to explain

It’s an MMAjunkie Radio tradition to ask guests to share stories of confrontations that took place outside of rings and cages.

During a recent in-studio interview, however longtime MMA manager Alex Davis decided to gift us with a different type of tale.

Spoiler alert: It’s got public urination, it’s got near-confrontations with authorities, it’s got intrigue … it’s got it all!

The place was Tokyo. The year, 1999. The protagonist was UFC, Strikeforce and Bellator veteran Renato Sobral, who was competing at the inaugural tournament of Japanese promotion Rings.

After a victorious night, “Babalu,” Davis and UFC Hall of Famer Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, who’d also come out victorious that night, were in celebratory spirits. Beer consumption occurred, and with it, a seemingly insurmountable urge to pee. Enter a language barrier.

But we’ll let Davis give you the riveting tale in the video above.
