Favourites Sports Fights

Mr. TM

Throwing a tantrum
Hockey is a sport that has the main rule that if you win a fight, your team gets ten points. Simple game, but the fights are never simple. Blood, concussions, triangle choke holds, and so much more are involved.

So which one is your favourites? Off the top of my head, I think back to the pretty famous NHL fight of Nick Kypreos. I always think of this fight after he bad mouths the Canucks, and if you know the fight, you are sitting there, naked, laughing.

Here is the video here, and I must say, it was especially finny, knowing how mouthy Nick was.



So what are your favourites?
 
There are quite a few of mine. Top, top favorite though, huge brawl back in 2007 between the Senators and Sabres. I think hockey fans should be able to flash back to this. Not the best brawl or fight ever, but seriously, if you have your goalies fighting, how is that not epic? It started with a pretty clean hit on Chris Drury, who was just watching the puck go through the crease and then got knocked hard. Needless to say, the Sabres' bench was piiiiiiissed. The fight starts at center, and all of a sudden the goalies are skating towards each other, dropping their equipment. Then after that, a Sabres player goes after the Ottawa goaltender, and gets some shots on him.

That was top notch simply for the goalies. I'll have more when I can find the videos. TM, is this only limited to the NHL?

Mod Edit: No, any sport
 


Ah, good ol' PJ Stock. As a long time Rangers fan, it was kind of sad to see Kyp go down like that, but he had it coming.

All that being said, my favorite fight of all-time is Dan Cloutier v. The New york Islanders. It started with Tommy Salo going into a fight that was already happening, and then Cloutier came from nowhere to level him, and land about 20 punches to his head before anyone got involved. Then he ripped off his jersey and went after the bench, begging them to step on the ice. If I am remembering correctly, he got about a 10 game suspension for that stunt.

I was also a big fan of all the Claude Lemieux v. Red Wings fights. He used to have some real good ones, and that entire rivalry was centered around him. Also, look up and Probert/Domi throwdowns.
 
I'm going to have to go with the Pacers/Pistons brawl. That was so insane. When Ben Wallace shoved Ron Artest, I knew something serious was about to go down seeing as how Ben kept pursuing Ron as everyone was trying to hold him back. When the fans got involved, the brawl esclated into total chaos. The best moment was probably when Artest was laying on the announcer's table, and then someone threw a beer at him, and he went completely ape shit. Funny thing about it is, I think he beat up the wrong guy.
 
In a recent match a against China Australia's under 19's soccer team was involved in a brawl where even the coaches got involved.I'm not really sure what caused it but some people are saying that the ref was paid off and was favoring china. The reason i picked this was becuase EVERYONE got involved


its not letting me post the video so heres the link

Let me post a couple of my favourites and then I will explain why.

First of all, this little gem:



The we have this one:



Those are fucking hilarious for completely different, yet still awesome reasons. The first oen is so unique because it is very rare that you get two players on the same team fighting. I think that is pretty evident by the shock in the commentator's voice. That one for Lee and I think that something like this will probably live long in my memory. I remember seeing the huge shit storm that came out of it as the Newcastle players became the laughing stock of the English game. That being said, it is not that uncommon now. Seeing this was just so surprising though.

The second was is just downright hilarious. Watch Claudio Pizarro. He hits the guy and then rund half way around the pitch to escape the flailing legs of his opponents. Both are equally hilarious.
 
For me it's definitely Deion Sanders vs. Andre Rison, lol.

Seriously, what more could you want in a fight in sports? This was like if Kobe and Shaq fought the first time they played against each other after Shaq got traded to the Miami Heat.

For those who don't know, Deion Sanders is arguably the greatest cornerback in NFL history, and one of the greatest athletes of all time period. He's also a tremendous showman, with a ton of charisma. His NFL career started with the Atlanta Falcons and he was there for nearly five years if I remember correctly. While there, he formed a close friendship with teammate and one of the best wide receivers in the game at the time, Andre Rison. Well, when Deion left Atlanta to go to division rival San Fransisco, their friendship ended and a whole lot of trash talked then presumed. And when Atlanta and San Fransisco finally played each other for the first time in regular season, everybody tuned in to see what would happen when Deion Sanders covered Andre Rison. And what happened was a fight between the two, with the both of them swinging wildly and ridiculously. It was hilarious. And when it was broken up by the refs, both stood there with there arms up in the air yelling at each other, lol. After that, Deion actually intercepted a pass and brought it back 90-something yards for a Touchdown, while dancing a good majority of his way down the field and starring down the entire Falcons team. It's a classic, classic game because of those two instances. After the game, Deion and Rison instantly made up, and during the press conference both showed genuine love for one another, while joking around about what happened.

Unfortunately, there's no video for it on youtube, but if you do a google search for Deion Sanders Andre Rison fight, you'll find a video of it.
 
Yes, I have found one of the other fights that I was looking for. I couldn't remember the name until I just looked up the Nashville Predator fights, and wouldn't you know it, it popped up. Thank you for that youtube. Anyway, the fight happened last year between Jordin TooToo and Brad Staubitz out in San Jose. Staubitz completely romps TooToo, and some comments on youtube are hilarious when they say he used his forearm or elbow pads. Now personally, I can't see these forearm shots to the face of TooToo, all I see is Staubitz just fucking TooToo up with so many punches to the face. But that is up to you to decide what you want. I missed watching this one. There is no real background to this fight, from what I remember. It was just one of those, let's fight, okay, and Staubitz just beats TooToo's ass. Yes I love saying that as a Blackhawks fan.

being a NRL fan here down under, there was a famous fight that occurred during our State of Origin (NSW vs QLD) match.
the fight pretty much involved everyone on the field

the story behind it is that word got out that NSW threatened team QLD that who ever says the word "queenslander" is going to get the "treatment". well it was yelled out and you can guess the rest.

here is the video
