The internet has become a black hole for videos of people fighting on the streets. Most of the time, the street scuffles are filled with intense rage and violence, just like on UFC fight nights. The brutal punches, kicks, and other bizarre methods of fighting often leave people shocked.
Continuing the tradition of street fights was two friends this time, but it was a stark contrast to the violence and high-octane action that we get to see in the usual. The clip showed the duo engaged in a street fight that seemed never to start and take off. Uploaded on X by the famous page ‘Fight Mate,’ the video had two friends trying to beat each other up for reasons unknown.

The man in the green shirt said “Go home” to his friend, who was hellbent on fighting him UFC style. He tried to land punches, but it seemed like he had no control over his hands, possibly meaning he was drunk.

The fight was nothing like the rest we see on the streets, which are filled with brutality. The man then tried to run away, but the person recording asked him why he was trying to get away.
He stopped and came back for more, but that proved to be a costly mistake. His friend, who seemingly had enough of the shenanigans, unleashed his fury and punched him in the face. The UFC-like punch sent the man straight to the floor, and he did not get up.
His friend walked away and left him on his own. People around them who were watching the fight were totally confused, and some even concerned for the knocked-out man. The cameraman then panned the camera to his face and he, too, wore a perplexed look.
Abandoned by his own, saved by strangers
Some good samaritans on the street then approached him in the pursuit of helping him. The camera then shifted focus to his friend, who swiftly walked away and was far gone. It was nothing like the violence we normally witness in such videos and added a newfound element to the ever-increasing number of street fight videos.
Users on X, too were totally confused about the fight and couldn’t figure out why the friend abandoned him. Here are some of the top comments made on the video of the friendly fight.
Going home before getting nocked out was definitely his best option.

The street fight was certainly something quite new. It did not have elements of intense rage and brutality, but a knockout is always the common factor that binds all street fights together.
