Australian grappler Craig Jones is under fire after forcibly kissing Gabi Garcia during a face-off, sparking outrage and calls for legal action. The incident went viral, drawing widespread condemnation.
Australia, Bollywood Fever: Australian grappler Craig Jones has found himself at the center of a major controversy after an inappropriate act during a face-off with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu icon Gabi Garcia. Ahead of their inter-gender bout at the Craig Jones Invitational, Jones shocked onlookers by forcibly kissing Garcia on the lips, a move that has been widely condemned on social media.
Jones, known for his impressive Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu career with 55 wins, faced off against Garcia, a dominant figure in women’s BJJ with 71 victories and six professional MMA wins. Despite the bout being highly anticipated due to their similar physical stats, the incident during the face-off has overshadowed the event.
As the fighters squared up, Jones suddenly grabbed Garcia by the head and kissed her, prompting a stunned and angry reaction from Garcia, who immediately swatted him away. “You’re a bitch man, really? F–k you, you crossed the line,” Garcia shouted as Jones ran off laughing.
The footage of the incident quickly went viral, with many on social media condemning Jones for what they described as sexual assault. Comments flooded platforms like X (formerly Twitter), with one user stating, “That’s sexual assault,” while another added, “The fact that people even think sexual harassment is funny is scary.” Others called for Jones to be charged over the act, emphasizing the seriousness of the situation and its impact as a negative influence on young men.
As the Craig Jones Invitational progresses, it remains unclear if the scheduled bout between Jones and Garcia will proceed. The incident has sparked a broader conversation about consent and appropriate behavior, particularly in a public and professional setting.
