UFC Fighter Goran Reljic Rescues Men From Crash
UFC middleweight Goran Reljic has rescued two men who crashed into the sea in his native Croatia, according to Slobodna Dalmacija (translation courtesy of Robert at Free Fight Videos):
A crash that almost killed two young men on the 15th of October at round 3am could have had disastrous consequences when the two young men, both from Privlaka, spun and crashed into the sea.
Thankfully both men survived, due to the brave actions of Goran Reljica, the Croatian ultimate fighter, who resides in the immediate vicinity of the town in question.
When he heard the crash, Goran jumped out of bed, still in his underwear and jumped into the sea.
He swam to the car, proceeded to brake the windshield of the vehicle and pull both men to land. Several eyes witness accounts confirm the story and so does Goran himself who doesn’t want any praise or recognition for the good deed.
“The only satisfaction I get is that both young men are alive and healthy, I don’t need any praise, I simply did what anyone one would have done in that situation” said Reljic
Reljic was scheduled to fight on the 25th October however a back injury forced him out of his fight with Brazilian Thales Leites. Even with his back injury Raljic did not hesitate to help and rescue the two young man from the sinking car.
Good on ya, Goran! I like these kind of stories.
Saving lives with an injured back couldn’t fight with an injured back? Blasphemy!
goodness E-Roc yet i do believe your sarcsim came across very well
i second Justin’s statement
Sweet, great story. Anyone know who the guy who stopped the gas station robbery was? I can’t remember or find it online.
rumor is dana just cut him for risking potential injury outside the octagon
dana whites gonna cut him cuz goran wont sign the rights to the story away to the ufc. DANA IS A TOOL! but in all seriousness good job i wonder if he did a cro cop high kick to knock out the windshield
Awesome.
And Benji Radach was the guy who foiled a robbery, but I believe it was at a restaurant and not a gas station.
I bet Fedor would have broken his hand doing that.
@ regoillin
it was benji raddach i think who messed up the dude in the robbery…
“E-ROC said:

Because saving two lives is less important than pleasing the poo-flinging apes who won’t appreciate the fight on Sunday anyway….
LOL @ DBiz.
Not just a kickass fighter.
dbiz eroc was jokin or could you not tell
if dana releases him over this kind of issue i could see him losing some credibility, hes already been losing lots in my eyes over the past couple months, with the lesnar fight(yes he won and winning proves he deserved the shot but come on he should have beaten down GG first), and of coruse the lack of kickin junie “who needs a boring wrestler” browning of TUF
Good job, here’s your cookie. Now get healthy and win some fights, would ya?
