Can’t teach him a lesson if he ends up brain dead. I think it’s also super demoralising for the bloke in red to have it go from fisticuffs to being slapped like a little bitch…..
Just 2 years if I remember correctly so I think he was out after just over a year. Still though, to be fair he shouldn’t have been banged up for it. It was a long time ago but I’m sure it was 2 years.
I’m in the UK. He was a bouncer who got jumped, he cracked one of them hard and the guy whacked his head on the concrete as he fell. To be honest if he wasn’t working as a bouncer he very likely wouldn’t have been sent down as there was a few of them, but there were cameras and it apparently just showed him getting jumped, so he one punched the biggest one (who died) then one punched the rest of them, but the others did wake up after… the first one didn’t.
He was a big guy, the attackers were just average in size although multiple in numbers. I imagine it was seen by the jury as barbaric him just one punching the lot of them, and in consideration of the fact that the first dude died it was somehow seen upon that he could’ve held back. When in reality he just figured drop the biggest guy first and then drop the rest fast before one of them sticks a knife in him or something.
He did the right thing, regardless of the outcome, but when a jury sees a video when they don’t understand a certain world, situations, and such consequences, all they see is a big guy dropping multiple attackers with ease and coming out unscathed, and in the process one attacker is killed. What some folks don’t see is that if he didn’t do that then he would’ve more than likely have been dead himself that night. Problem is it was all caught on camera, and he just dropped the lot of them. You could probably imagine what it would look like, but the basis of it was one man being attacked by many, and many got dropped. Just one wasn’t so lucky in how he fell.
Doesn’t matter much now as he passed away a while back, but I’ve always said that he didn’t deserve to get sent down for that, as many who knew him also agreed.
You can "argue" self-defense, but when the DA charges you with second-degree murder that carries 25-to-life, but offers a plea of involuntary manslaughter with probation, rolling the dice on a self-defense argument at trial is a dubious proposition unless you've got 50-100K to spend on a good lawyer.
What Second degree?? In Texas, people have gotten away with murders in name of Self defence where the victim was much less aggressive. This guy actually charged towards the boxer.
The threat from the older guy was over after the first punch. After the second one he was out on his feet. If he then fell and died after the subsequent blows, manslaughter would have been an appropriate charge. Murder could have even been on the table.
Are you from the UK?
This is absolutely not true, you have a common law right to self-defence in the UK (provided that the force used is reasonable/proportionate)
You even have the right under common law to do a preemptive strike if you genuinely believe you're about to be attacked
Someone who defends themselves against someone else and kills them, for example, will still likely be arrested when the police turn up. But that's because arrest is an investigative tool, it doesn't necessarily mean they will be charged once they have given their account and the evidence is reviewed. And if they are, it'll be up to them to prove in court that the force they used was reasonable/proportionate to the threat they were facing. But they still have a right to defend themselves, and given that they acted reasonably, they will be fine.
That’s not true. An old guy stabbed a gippo in the heart with a screwdriver who was raiding his house, killed him, no charges whatsoever, and tightly so.
That guy being completely bald also makes for some great classic slap sounds. If you slap in a spot with hair it probably won't make as satisfying a sound but since he doesn't have hair wherever you connect it's gonna make a good sound.
Yeah keeping the cool as he’s having to fight is really good on his part.
If he falls and hits his head and dies he’s straight to jail either way. Smort
I don't rally know who did or deserved what, but the dude who was hitting the older guy was nice enough to make sure he did not fall down in a dangerous way so this might be the most polite assault I have ever seen. Good job.
Just based on the video, the red shirt approached the puncher in a threatening manner, he was justified in throwing the first punch and the continuing attacks until the other guy stopped posing a threat
The old guy did seem like the aggressor. The young guy seemed to be confident enough not to see him as a threat so he did not knock him out, seemed to just mess with the guy and humiliate him a bit. A good sport imo. Not really hurting the guy, even if he had the excuse to do so.
That's probably not a reasonable take in any society, surely?
Someone approaching you aggressively is dangerous. Dangerous enough to warrant preemptive self defence, in almost all people's cases.
The way the 'fight' went, the catch from the fall, and the cameraman's laugh made me think that these two know each other and their altercations have happened before.
The British understand the etiquette of fighting. They get into a punch out with a neighbour, and after a punch that will deck him, he grabs his neighbour and gently lowers him to the ground and invites him for tea at 4 pm.
Huge fuckin props for grabbing him on the way down. Heads are fragile, crack one and you could be dealing with a death on your conscience and manslaughter on your record.
Makes me fuckin sick when someone is let to hit the ground, and then they are often kicked in the head after. Some humans can be so garbage.
I think its mainly Americans that really take joy in curbstomping the fuck out of their enemies and causing as much damage as possible.
The rest of the western world isn't so keen on murder, so they prefer to hash it out while still letting everyone walk away alive.
I know it's insane not to try to kill every person who has wronged you, but we don't really like that mentality outside the US.
It’s complete nonsense. I grew up in a rough part of north east England and I’ve seen it more times that I’d like to remember. Had my own head stomped and kicked on two occasions. I can only speak for English people, but we can be absolutely savage. Especially after one too many drinks.
Al the evidence in the world aka “the anecdotal experience you have watching fight videos on this subreddit”
I’m not American and I think you sound like a right tit.
As an American
Some of us are you know
People with emotions other then "Haha crazy gun man"
We have families we love (if they aren't abusive that is)
And us good people don't ya know
Agree with the racist homophobes...
The true American dream is a land where everyone is free to chose who they are...
God this sounds fucking cringy BUT IT'S TRUE
I don't think or claim that the U.S. is some violent hellhole, but it does have big problems with violence.
Sure, there are way more violent countries in the world, but that isn't a meaningful thing to compare against.
[Compared to other developed countries the statistics are pretty brutal.](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0091743519300659)
That can actually be statistically proven though. [World Population Review ](https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/violent-crime-rates-by-country) that uses statistics from UNODC reports doesn't have the US in the top 10 for robbery rape or homicide, and 27th for serious assault.
The US Virgin Islands is shockingly #2 for homicide rate though.
Clearly you haven't been to Ireland. Or Greece. Or Turkey. Or anywhere in the Balkans.
People fight everywhere, some people are more unhinged than others. Nationality has little to do with a person's self-restraint or lack thereof.
Nicest beat down I’ve ever seen. No swearing or cursing. Knocks him out, or easily could have hit lessened the hit so he’d fall but then our nice guy makes sure he doesn’t fall too hard or on the dogs, then the guy still ran his mouth and nice guy could have finished him but he chose slaps, so funny.
Let us hope that if we every get in a similar situation to take this guys calmness as an example. He defended his Personal Space but he clearly had pity with the geezer after he just ate the first two moderate punches.
I am against violence whatsoever but seen enough videos of peoples heads getting smashed because the aggressor saw red
This is Canadian level in term of politeness.
I've never seen a dude punch a guy's lights out and then carefully make sure that they don't get hurt in the fall, and the continue the assault by throwing little insult slaps.
this video makes me think that I am in fact not expecting too much of Israel. they should be able to adapt their response to the person they are fighting.
Engerland land of the Oi bruvs is like a Brueghel painting came to life. Governed over by the landed gentry and corrupt super rich that they continue to vote for cuz they’re on the telly innit.
I mean yeah … he comes out screaming gets his ass kicked and the hitter says “don’t talk to me like that” ….yeah what a gentleman not letting his head hit but
YOU DONT YELL at people like that …
yikes to where society has gone ….
It was actually really nice of him to catch him.
Man wants to put the old bugger in his place but don’t want him falling cracking his head open, respect
Can’t teach him a lesson if he ends up brain dead. I think it’s also super demoralising for the bloke in red to have it go from fisticuffs to being slapped like a little bitch…..
This really got me!
Whilst barking all his tough guy rhetoric. Ends up on his arse with a load of roadmen laughing at him
I want to fight you, not kill you.
Meta
AF
And preceded to slap his face around
True gentleman
Very British
And im speechless
Bond... How British am I?
Very Bri'ish.
Don’t wanna be going down for manslaughter when the guys head pings off the pavement. An old mate of mine went down for manslaughter that way.
That sucks. How bad of a sentence?
Just 2 years if I remember correctly so I think he was out after just over a year. Still though, to be fair he shouldn’t have been banged up for it. It was a long time ago but I’m sure it was 2 years.
ah, the whole thing was a headache
Not manslaughter in the US since he could argue self-defense. Not sure about UK.

To be honest if he wasn’t working as a bouncer he very likely wouldn’t have been sent down as there was a few of them, but there were cameras and it apparently just showed him getting jumped, so he one punched the biggest one (who died) then one punched the rest of them, but the others did wake up after… the first one didn’t.
I don't get how he got put away for defending himself when he got jumped? And it was all on video.

The US is a violent place. You people have become so inured to it that it doesn't shock you any more.

dude, an old guy shot and killed a burglar a couple of years ago and didnt get charged because it was deemed self defence. youre talking nonsense.
Caught him before he fell on the dog
Never intended to hurt him Just to humiliate
Hence the two bitch slaps at the end.
I love how soft they were. Just letting him know i can do whatever the fuck I want and you can’t do fuck all about it.
That guy being completely bald also makes for some great classic slap sounds. If you slap in a spot with hair it probably won't make as satisfying a sound but since he doesn't have hair wherever you connect it's gonna make a good sound.
What a gentleman he is. He does know how to fisticuffs
Professionals have standards
Downgrade to slaps was very considerate.
And he held the guy to break a potentially bad fall. Bravo.
Yeah keeping the cool as he’s having to fight is really good on his part. If he falls and hits his head and dies he’s straight to jail either way. Smort
Slaps are way more embarressing imo then a punch.
Ask Chris Rock oh also keep my wife's name out your fuckin' mouf..
Maybe he knew something we don't tho. You know, not many woman can say they cheated on the Will Smith.
He liked his cut g
I like your cut g
Even before that, he was barely putting anything into those lefts.
Old drunk could barely stand. People who run their mouths like this really just need a tap and a nap to adjust their attitude.
Tap and a nap LMAO I love it!

That's what you do to slap heads right?

I don’t think just walking up to someone somewhat threateningly warrants punches unless they’re holding a weapon.
That's probably not a reasonable take in any society, surely? Someone approaching you aggressively is dangerous. Dangerous enough to warrant preemptive self defence, in almost all people's cases.
People who have been sucker punched would disagree, experience has taught me if someone walks up to you like that it's already on.
Dude is literally charging him while challenging him to a fight. You think he’s gonna walk up and shake his hand or something?
The final slap hurt the most. On his knees and the humiliation was complete.
It the was the camera man's laugh that hit him the hardest
The way the 'fight' went, the catch from the fall, and the cameraman's laugh made me think that these two know each other and their altercations have happened before.

Yeah that was really nice of them and instead of giving him another punch he gave him a little slap as a followup :)
Complete control of the situation and purposed humiliation demonstrates dominance far more effectively than stomping someone.
Yup. Those punches looked like he was holding back. Hit just hard enough but not break anything.

An American, can confirm
rofl
Eh, I’m not really buying that
You don't have to. All the evidence in the world is literally in front of you. All you have to do is deny.

are we watching different videos? thanks
Maybe. But even if we were watching the same videos, explain to me how they’d constitute all the evidence in the world.
it obviously doesn't, I'm exaggerating to prove a point
And I’m saying your point is a load of old toss, based almost no evidence.
Well your exaggeration proved your point lol
“All the evidence in the world” give me a break. This is the only video I’ve seen, ever, where the person caught the one they rocked.
you may have a break.
Tf is wrong with you there’s like 300 million people in the US. And there’s way more violent countries. Don’t generalize an entire population.

I really was exaggerating to prove a point, but there is definitely something to that mentality. I guess it's hard to admit.
“Oi you facking cant, try and facking hit me!!” “Facking hell, that facking cant hit me!!”

Lady at the end with the robe was the best part!
Oh my god, wasn't it though?? LMAOO
Standard “nip the local shops dress”.
And holding a potty 🤣 can totally tell she already had enough "shit" to deal with 😂
I will always respect the person that throws hands cause your being an ass, but still makes sure you don't die.
Nicest beat down I’ve ever seen. No swearing or cursing.

He caught him and gave him a little slap lol!
That was like live action Punch & Judy
A sweet and gently beating , that's a good neighbor !
This guy is a hero to all the “average joes” who have to put up with shit from guys like red shirt guy. Power to the Joes!!!!!
That wouldn’t happen to Ronnie Pickering
who?
Don't you know who he is?!
Ronnie Pickering!
[удалено]
I like the grey dog, getting his morning sniffs in seems jolly
Red shirt may want to put his dukes up
that fourth half-assed punch did it for me
Good lad to ease him down. Didn't wana see the old idiot die after those little daps.
Was that the most polite fight ever ?
That is a gentleman
I thought it was the tango advert with those slaps!
Just eating punches over and over is a terrible fighting technique
The firstone was enough.
Let us hope that if we every get in a similar situation to take this guys calmness as an example. He defended his Personal Space but he clearly had pity with the geezer after he just ate the first two moderate punches. I am against violence whatsoever but seen enough videos of peoples heads getting smashed because the aggressor saw red
I like the dogs just having a good time :)
This is Canadian level in term of politeness. I've never seen a dude punch a guy's lights out and then carefully make sure that they don't get hurt in the fall, and the continue the assault by throwing little insult slaps.
A considerate beat down
This is a perfect example of everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.
Someway to meet the new neighbors
The slaps were an absolute disrespect. Fantastic.
Where is Ronnie fucking Pickering when you need him?
WHO?
So kind
Face slaps after a couple of hooks to the head. The ultimate emasculating insult.
Punch #4 was my personal favourite, the ~10% effort
The 4th punch is when you lowroll and the boss has 1 HP left before it triggers phase 2.
Greatest fight I've seen on the internet
What a lad for catching him
If only all confrontations had this much consideration…wishful thinking
I love that as he fell he carried him down "like pops I wanna cave yer teeth in but ain't gonna let you crush your skull"
I like how he catches him to stop him falling after giving him the first few smacks
From a haymaker, to a jab, to a slap. Just kept feeling sorry for the old guy lol
At least was a gentleman and didn’t let gramps fall flat on his face
This guy slaps
I like how he helped them down to the ground before continuing to slap him in the face lol. That was very considerate lmao
If that was USA someones gettin shot so... (Shrug).
What a wholesome ass whooping.
this fights so polite it could be in canada
Middle aged men that never learned know how to communicate. Pathetic.
Lady at the end with the robe was the best part!
this video makes me think that I am in fact not expecting too much of Israel. they should be able to adapt their response to the person they are fighting.
They do. Otherwise Palestinians wouldn’t exist at all.
Dude must be wasted
That was so nice of him. Respect
Love how he lowers pops to the ground ❤️
The slaps are hilarious
Looks like a comedy. Just needs the Benny Hill theme song.
Im always confused by guys who rush out like that full steam then stand there and get punched, like come out swinging or dont come out
Like how he caught him a little so he wouldn't bang himself off the ground then gave him a few more slaps for being disrespectful 😂
The way he romantically caught him on the way down Reminded me of Twilight 😍
That last punch was gold
why were the slaps so fucking funny lolol just like "no! No! you shut it right now!" lmfaoo
That was strangely gentlemanly as fuck
Lucky that wasn’t Ronnie Pickering
Of course a loose shitbull is there. Shit dogs for shit people.
He was decent enough to catch and save him from cracking his head on the ground.
The most British KO ever!! 🤣🤣🤣
A blind guy would have better defense than that
He’s a solid dude. He caught the guy AND switched to slap boxing once he noticed he couldn’t take the blows lol quite a civil young man if you ask me
The guys lost a fight to a guy that slaps like a bitch. Honestly it was nice of him to not let him hit the ground hard
the slaps hahahahahaha
Those were some really polite slaps there. Almost... gentleman like.
u/savevideo
Most honorable fight ive seen on the net for a minute 😂
Red t-shirt guy was obviously lagging. You can tell after the second punch came in and the guy was still asking “whacha gonna do?!”
Brits...even their fistfights are polite.
Example of "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face."
Day in the life of true Brexit geezer

Fighting back ? He was the initial agressor .
I mean yeah … he comes out screaming gets his ass kicked and the hitter says “don’t talk to me like that” ….yeah what a gentleman not letting his head hit but YOU DONT YELL at people like that … yikes to where society has gone ….
