A Los Angeles firefighter has been jailed for six months for the brutal beating of a woman he claimed was feeding stray cats in his neighborhood.

Ian Eulian, 39, was given 180 days behind bars, as well as three years formal probation, 25 days of Caltrans work and one year of anger management classes, by Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Jose Sandoval.

Eulian, who once tried to become 'America's Fittest Firefighters' in a Men's Health magazine contest, was caught on camera pummeling the woman and pulling her from her car in September 2013.

Deputy District Attorney Joshua Ritter said Eulian leaned into the car and yelled at victim Rebecca Stafford, who threw cat kibble at him.

The defendant punched the victim twice, then pulled the victim out of her car and hit her again as she fell to the ground, where she lay unconscious.

'He said that they were pooping in his backyard and that they attacked his dog,' Ms Stafford, 47, told KABC last year.

'It got hostile and then I got punched and knocked out,' she told the station. 'I woke up a little while later. I didn't remember really what happened.'

When Stafford regained consciousness, Eulian then brazenly tried to convince the victim that she'd simply had an accident, she says.

However, speaking after the sentencing, she told KTLA 5 she 'wasn't out for blood'.

'I feel like he's lost a lot,' she added.

Eulian, who has resigned from the fire service, apologized to Ms Stafford at the sentencing, and told ABC 7 that he 'absolutely regretted' his actions.

But he said he was disappointed in his sentence.
