VIDEO: Ridiculous Fan Brawl Broke Out During Errol Spence vs Shawn Porter Fight
By Chris Pyo
Boxing matches can get violent. Like, really violent. But the pugilism is supposed to be exclusive to the ring. Unfortunately, that's not what happened when a couple of fans got into what became a significant brawl during the Errol Spence-Shawn Porter fight Saturday night in Los Angeles, as captured by TMZ.
It's hilarious that the guy taking the video keeps on yelling "I'm in a brawl, I'm in a brawl" when he's clearly in the safe zone and out of harm's way. Props to him for getting this footage on video, I guess?
Apart from this fan fight, Spence edged out Porter by split decision to unify the IBF and WBC welterweight titles and bring his career record to 26-0. He scored this nasty left hook knockdown on Porter that nearly ended the fight in the 11th round, but the former titles was able to continue and finish up the fight in true warrior fashion.

To all future boxing match attendees: Let's leave all the fighting and showboating to the guys inside the ring, please.
