The heart-rate increases and the mouth goes dry. They often recollect a strange sensation as if the time came to a grinding halt. Many people have subscribed to enduring similar emotional and physical turmoil when put through a street fight. However, it is a different matter that the real clash, after the initial push and shove, barely lasts more than a couple of minutes.

A Twitter post by @streetfighthard had a half-minute-long video of a fistfight. The best part is that the combatants in the video, in this case, two teenage boys, end up knocking down each other.
Give me one, and get one free!!
Surrounded by a bunch of friends, the duo faced each other and threw right-handed punches that connected at the opposite end, at the exact moment. As a result, both fell on the concrete floor. But thankfully, they managed to get up.

The fight bore semblance to the symmetric choreography of popular action-thrillers.
The rare TKO draw. Almost saw one of these at the end of Rocky III.

Some, like @jerandnj, doubt the integrity of the fight since each step, leading up to the final punch exchange, felt organized and systematic.
Both people were aware both people started at the same time and I guess it wasn’t even match

Yes, the duo exchanged minimum words and got down to business without fuss.
Simply as common gentleman’s quarrel

Although rare for both, the occurrence of double knockout in mixed martial arts seems to be at the higher end.
Who won the fight??
In March 2017, during the Shamrock Fighting Championship, Axel Cazares and Alan Vasquez threw solid right hands that connected at the exact moment. Dazed, both men went to the canvas, but Vasquez ended the winner since he managed to get up first.

Likewise, on 10th May 2019, a boxing match at Hard Rock Hotel in Florida faced a similar dilemma when the Cuban Irosvani Duvergel and Jerhed Henderson fought.
During the third round, Duvergel, a Middleweight boxer, threw a powerful right hook as Fenderson retreated to the ropes. The punch connected and took the American to the ground. Almost simultaneously, Fenderson delivered a shovel uppercut, which sent the Cuban flying. The Cuban managed to get to his feet and won the fight eventually.
