A Similar Experience
This was not the first time that Polyana had to face such a debacle. Long time back she had to face a similar situation as she recounted how two men approached her on a motorcycle and what happened then was a bit different from what happened today.
Outnumbered
This happened in her home town Belem and again for a smartphone. One of the two men on following her on the motorcycle charged at her while the other stayed. This time she was scared she recounts, “This time I was scared. I don’t know if it was because there were two of them.” He tried to snatch the phone from her hand but she was reluctant.
A Same Old Polyana
“He tried to take it from my hand, I punched him in the face, and he was scared. She went on to talk about the encounter. “He broke my umbrella and tried to take my phone,” She said of the earlier incident. “I said I wasn’t going to give it to him. He tried to take it from my hand, I punched him in the face, and he was scared.”
Prepared For The Second Round
The Belem incident was the first and her approach might have been a bit reckless but she did what she thought was right and did not give up to the bad guys. This incident at her hometown gave her an experience that held to her till this night at Rio. She was prepared for anything of this sort coming her way.
It’s 2-0
So, after what Polyana did to the muggers at Belem and now Rio, it’s two for the fighter and zeroes for those crooks. Polyana has always known how to fight, be it in the ring or outside, she will take her opponent on with the same confidence. Inside the ring, we adore her fighting skills and outside she is making news beating up bad people.
A Quiet Meal
What Polyana did after handing over the mugger to the cops was something cool in itself. She got back home, cooked a meal and had a peaceful dinner. She felt there was nothing too serious about it. A mugger tried to rob, she showed him his place and got back to hers. She did not let this event hamper her routine. She was all ready for her training the next day.
