UFC star Brian Ortega flew to another state and CHOKED out an internet troll who talked trash to him on Fortnite.

Ortega flew out to North Carolina to meet a troll after giving him 'sh*t' online.

'T-City' is not just one of the best MMA fighters in his weight division but also a big gamer, having shown off his gaming skills on UFC Embedded shows ahead of his fights.

He's made a name for himself as a submission artist, beating the likes of Renato Moicano, Frankie Edgar and Yair Rodríguez.

Ortega has forced Rodríguez and Moicano, among others, to tap during his stellar UFC career.

And he's now added a troll to his ever-growing resume.

Ortega flew out to North Carolina and pulled up to his workplace to choke out a troll, who talked trash to him on Fortnite.

In a video posted online, he says: "People ask me 'Play with me on Fortnite', cool, cool. The only problem is you guys keep talking mad 'you know what'.

"So, I have an online homie talking mad smack, the real reason why I flew to North Carolina was because he was talking sh*t. We made a bet, and I said I’ll fly over there and choke you out. And here he is! I showed up!

"I showed up to his damn job and I had to wait for him to finish his job. So now, ‘Imma choke your ass out. A bet’s a bet!"

Ortega then wraps his arms around the poor lad's throat and locks in a rear naked choke, putting him to sleep.

After waking up, he joked: "I took a nap."

They both laughed off the incident and seemed to be in good spirits despite their online beef.

Ortega, meanwhile, hasn't fought in the UFC since his defeat to Diego Lopes at UFC 306 last September.
