se está amenazando - se está retando - se reta - se desafía con bravuconería


Explanation:
Entiendo que se refiere a "acosar, intimidar" o incluso "matonear" (no en el sentido de "asesinar", sino en el sentido de "acoso como matón"...)

Incluso "retar", incluyendo "fanfarronería", "bravuconería"... en el sentido de las acciones de un "matón", individuo que usa "intimidación.

Saludos cordiales.
