She may be small, but Olympic gymnast Alicia Sacramone packs a punch.
A YouTube video of the gymnast, who’s been garnering loads of media attention for being “hot,” has surfaced of Sacramone delivering a knock out of left hook to a fellow Brown University student, who appears to have asked for it.
The 20-year-old burgeoning sex symbol helped lead the United States women’s gymnastics team to a team silver medal in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, for better or worse.
Team USA lost the gold medal to China, following a few missteps, including Sacramone’s disappointing balance beam performance and a tumble on her backside during her floor exercise.
With all of the attention being paid to Sacramone as an athlete and as a sex symbol, the YouTube video of her packing a wallop on a beefy male Brown student is burning up the Web.
A gymnast for more than half her life, Sacramone won seven world championship medals before winning the team silver at the 2008 Beijing Olympics Tuesday night.
Her first Olympics, Sacramone narrowly missed making the team in 2004 but has since dominated as one of the world’s greatest gymnasts on floor and vault.
During the 2006-07 academic year, Sacramone competed for Brown’s gymnastics’ team while maintaining a position on the U.S. National team.
A sociology major, Sacramone’s currently taking a year-long break from her studies.
