Rick Ross has brushed off his recent scuffle with Drake supporters in Canada, despite his crew coming out worse.
In a video uploaded to his Instagram Stories on Thursday (July 4), the MMG mogul laughed off the incident and mocked the group of men who attacked him and his entourage at a Vancouver music festival last weekend.
Rozay also claimed that he left one of the men scared stiff after threatening to punch him.
“Aye man, I’m thinking about the event that happened over there,” he said with a grin. “When the first dude stepped up to Rozay, the lil’ short fat one that looked like Bam Bam Bigelow from wrestling. When he stepped up, I squatted down and his eyes had told him what I said.
“Basically, ‘Boy, if I hit you, I’ma see everything you ate for the last two days.’ His balls dropped out of his ass. He never said another word, he did never did nothing. He was a straight busta.”
The Teflon Don then downplayed the sucker punch he caught in the face that ignited the backstage brawl.
“Then the n-gga behind him said, ‘I know MMA!’ And then I got hit with a drink,” Ross continued. “I’m still convinced ain’t no n-gga punched me. Somebody said, ‘Rozay, the n-gga tried to punch you, he hit you!’
“I said, ‘Nah, he had to throw a drink.’ ‘Cause throwing a drink would have been way more disrespectful than screaming, ‘I know MMA!’”
He ended the video by blowing a kiss to the camera.

The fight erupted shortly after Rick Ross finished performing at Ignite Music Festival on Sunday (June 30) and was seemingly sparked him playing Kendrick Lamar‘s Drake diss song “Not Like Us” to close out his set.
Footage showed a group of men angrily confronting Rozay and his entourage backstage, with the two camps exchanging heated words.
Things escalated when one of the men sucker punched the Miami native in the face, leading to an all-out brawl that last for several minutes.
Multiple members of Ross’ crew took a nasty beating and were left laid out on the floor, while the rapper himself quickly fled the scene and escaped largely unscathed, minus the initial punch.
Ross’ initial response took on the same sneering tone as his above video, with him saying: “I thought they were bottle service boys. Ha!”
Rozay has been on the receiving end of jokes himself, though. Drake, with whom he’s been beefing for most of this year, trolled his former collaborator by posting a video shortly after the attack of him celebrating Canada Day and listening to Vancouver rap group the Rascalz.
Ross’ longtime nemesis 50 Cent also piled on the misery by sharing a video of the “Hustlin’” hitmaker retreating from the violence and writing: “LMAO [crying face emoji] THE GREAT ESCAPE! MEEKA CALL THE CHASERS, THEY ARE CHASING ME. [grinning face emoji] LOL.”
Fif later posted another video in which he sarcastically expressed concern for Ross: “Hey guys. I just saw a very unfortunate situation that took place in Canada, and I want to say to everyone that I hope that that brother made it home safely.
“I hope that he now has a different perspective and a better sense of what to do and what not to do while you’re out in the world.”
