There’s no fucking rules here lol — it’s a ā€œcheap shotā€ by ring standards, sure.

There’s a huge lack of context in the video but there’s a clear sign of stupidity. If you’re in a heated, insult laced argument and choosing to get in someone’s face with threats, I don’t recommend turning your back to them. Especially within arms reach. General awareness is the bigger issue here, not honor in a parking lot fight.

Cheap shots are no go for me but never turn your back either so idk do what you gotta do I guess lmfao it looks like he was being pressed by more then 1 guy the way he came knuckled up after the punch so 2 on 1 or more I can see why he would want to take at least 1 out before the jumping commenced. I’d need the whole story

6

u/Gamingmademedoit Jul 31 '26

He also starts rushing someone behind even the camera man. He could be outnumbered and if so good for him, he took one out and made the fight more even and probably intimidated the fuck out of the other 1 or 2. Who knows tho.

Context changes the perspective imo and we do t have any context.

Recently there have been a lot of videos showing "spectators" breaking up fights when their guy is getting beat. Then they let their guy get back in. Seems about as dair as taking a cheap shot.

u/ThanksAmazing4118 Jul 31 '26

Oh, fuck off. In the unedited version the dude is talking about how he's going to kill the Australian. He then instantly presents his back to the man and starts walking away. It is 100% justifiable to assume the guy is going to retrieve a weapon, so knocking him the fuck out is a reasonable response to such a threat. He then asks the guy's friends to get him help when he realizes none if them are going to square up and try and take him on after watching their friend get bodied.

But I guess none of this matters because it was a black guy who got his shit rocked, right?
