UFC's Leslie Smith defends female friend by beating the crap out of male groper

Carlos Condit wasn't the only UFC fighter to score an important TKO victory with elbows this weekend.

Women's bantamweight stalwart Leslie Smith says she beat up a man who groped her friend, and took a swing at her, outside a San Francisco bar Saturday night. Smith's coach Cesar Gracie wrote about the incident on Facebook on Sunday.

Smith told MMAFighting.com that she was about to enter The Mint in the Hayes Valley neighborhood of San Francisco with fellow UFC fighter Heather Jo Clark, Clark's boyfriend and a female friend of Smith when a man passed behind them and grabbed Smith's friend's butt.
