MMA fighter wrestles with alligator. Video goes viral

An MMA fighter was seen handling an alligator with bare hands in Jacksonville, Florida. The video has gone viral making the man a popular face in the locality.

Mike Dragich found himself facing an 8-foot alligator in the middle of the road armed with nothing but his bare hands – no tools, no shoes, just his own resourcefulness. Despite the daunting odds, Dragich remained undeterred, showcasing remarkable bravery and quick thinking as he confronted the formidable reptile. In a display of sheer determination, Dragich tackled the unexpected challenge head-on, demonstrating remarkable courage in the face of adversity, as per a report on FOX 35 Orlando.

Last June, MMA fighter Mike Dragich, recognized as the @bluecollar_brawler on social media, garnered widespread attention when he successfully captured an alligator discovered in a parking lot near a Jacksonville elementary school. His swift and decisive action not only prevented potential harm to bystanders but also showcased his expertise and fearlessness in handling dangerous situations. As news of his heroic deed spread, the fighter's online presence skyrocketed, earning him viral fame and admiration from audiences worldwide, as per Fox Weather report.


Earlier in March, the Biden administration on Thursday restored rules to protect imperiled species and shield their habitat from destruction after the measures were rolled back under former President Donald Trump.

Among the changes, the US Fish and Wildlife Service will reinstate a decades-old regulation that mandates blanket protections for animals and plants newly classified as threatened. That means officials won't have to craft specific plans to shield each individual species while protections are pending, as has been done recently with North American wolverines in the Rocky Mountains, alligator snapping turtles in the Southeast and spotted owls in California.
