Street skirmishes have become increasingly common in recent times. One of the primary factors contributing to this trend is the surge in popularity of MMA, spearheaded by the UFC. Individuals attempt to imitate their favorite fighters during street altercations. These incidents are often recorded on video devices and shared on social media platforms. Recently, a video of a street fight went viral on social media.
The altercation took place between two individuals without shirts on a concrete surface, possibly near a beach. In the footage, one of the fighters delivered a brutal kick to the head of the other. However, this knockout blow is not permitted according to the unified rules of professional MMA. The victor of the fight was dressed in grey shorts, while the defeated individual wore white shorts.
The confrontation commenced with a deceptive front kick from the individual in grey shorts. In response, the person in white shorts countered with a forceful kick to the body. Subsequently, they followed up with a front kick that caused the person in grey shorts to fall. Furthermore, the individual in white shorts executed a soccer kick to the fallen opponent, accompanied by a right hook. The fight concluded when the person in white shorts delivered a soccer kick to the head of the person in grey shorts.
Knockout reminiscent of UFC bouts
A soccer kick to the head is considered an illegal maneuver in professional MMA. However, it was allowed in the Pride Championships. Moreover, knees to a grounded opponent are also prohibited in UFC-sanctioned MMA fights. However, One Championship permits knees to the head of grounded opponents.
The video capturing the brutal soccer kick knockout in a street fight gained significant attention on social media. It rapidly spread across various social media platforms and has amassed nearly a quarter million views on X alone.
Nevertheless, take a look at the reactions from fight enthusiasts to the knockout video below.
One individual was prepared, the other was not
Firstly, engaging in a fight without proper training is a recipe for disaster. The use of a head kick in this situation was clearly illegal 🚫. Employing a head kick when your opponent is already down on their knee indicates malicious intent.
The fighter displayed remarkable power, relying more on kicks than punches
Oh, this video is going viral once again. What an intense street fight it was! #saworld

That’s how it should be. If you ever witness me in a fight (which is highly unlikely), it would be all MMA, with no time for just throwing punches.
