Police said the woman ran inside of the Bushiken Karate Charlotte Dojo and Williams followed.
Once the pair was inside, Williams got a sweet surprise: sensei Randall Ephraim, who was teaching a class.
"He was just punching at everything from walls to cars, everything," said Ephraim.
Ephraim was able to get control of Williams and fend him off.
"He was very strong -- very, very strong," Ephraim said. "He weighed at least 200 (pounds) and some change, under the influence -- very strong powerful individual."
