There are no rules, though. That is the exact point. You can be jumped 5 on 1 if they want. People looking to catch you off guard and cold clock you. VY was right in the middle of it the whole time. VY was right in the middle of it the whole time, even grabbed someone by the throat. You saying he was playing peacemaker the whole time? He was having to be held back in the beginning. He was still being physical at the end of it. He wasn't paying attention to the smaller dude looking to deck someone. And paid the price.
And nah, I stay away from bars because of this ignorant behavior displayed by VY and the others in the video. Being in your 40s and getting into fights at bars has to be embarrassing. Especially for the whole world to see.
You get into a fight outside of a controlled sport, all bets are off. People can cry "Cheap shot" all they want, but doesn't really mean anything. Guarantee that doesn't happen if he was on his toes, That guy isn't going to attempt that if VY was paying attention to him.
Not sure how saying that is being a "tough guy". It's reality. I have been into a few scuffles in a bar/strip club over a decade ago. Got punched without me even paying attention by a much bigger dude at a Ft Worth strip club and he didn't stop until they pulled him off. So yeah, I am well aware of this ignorant behavior unfortunately at these havens for drunk people wanting to get physical for any reason. I'd need to re-evaluate my life, though if this will still happening to me in my 40s.
