Australian MMA fighter Viktor Lyall was recently involved in an altercation on the street. Two punks were roughing up a man in an alley when Lyall saw them and broke it up. After that, the two men chased Lyall and started harassing the fighter. This was further spurred by a girl who seemed to be a friend of the two.

The two attackers kept chasing Lyall. Although, at all times, Lyall displayed good distance, and was ready to deal with the two if they attacked. The Aussie MMA fighter also showed great situational awareness by not letting the second attacker get in a position to sucker punch him.

Eventually, as the man without a top kept getting closer, Lyall landed a Nate Diaz-like slap. Angered by this, the man tried moving forward to plot an attack on the fighter. But eventually, he met with a high kick that knocked him down. Towards the end of the video, the bare-chested man spat on the Aussie fighter, who in anger retaliated with a front kick.
