Skip to the 6 minute mark for the fight.
A little backstory: Seattle's official superhero Phoenix Jones was on patrol with his cohorts Midnight Jack, Red Falcon, Bishop and Westlake Drake, when they found a man yelling at a car and punching its windows, scaring the passengers inside. Phoenix quickly called the police and attempted to intervene with the suspect. The man began throwing racial slurs at Phoenix, until finally, under police moderation, the two agreed to mutual combat.
[sp]Phoenix wins.[/sp]
He fights like a man who plays too many videogames.
And yet he won.
Man that's gotta be emasculating.

Surprisingly decent fight. I was expecting a slapping contest

-He has been stabbed, had his nose broken, and even took a bullet to his vest.
-He has yet to lose a fight in his professional MMA carreer.
Can cops even do that
Phoenix Jones is a pretty rad name
The douchebag is strong in these ones.
Pheonix showed some major restraint. If some faggot had his iphone right in my face talking shit, i mightve reacted.
wtf. did the cops seriously supervise a street fight.
I've never heard of this mutual combat law but if what they said is true the cops can't really do shit about it.
Is there actually a law that allows mutual combat?
That's the most amazing thing I've heard all day.
I always thought it was silly how technically, in most places, you're not allowed to fight even if both parties are in approval of the fight. I reckon that if you and another man want to punch each other it should be allowed, as long as you make sure no bystanders are hurt.
Letting people sort their own shit out in a way they see fit is great
* Walks up to random guy on the street, (points if you are in front of a police statation) look at him "Mutual Combat?" "Sure" Fight.
Damn mutual combat sounds pretty neat. Also, Phoenix Jones has some pretty damn good footwork.
Haha oh man, this was like, less than a block away from my apartment.
That asshole in the orange shirt got dropped in front of an Urban Outfitters.
And Jesus, why do shirts always have to come off when assholes get embarrassed?
Apparently, Orange-Shirt had his hands around Pheonix's neck, leaving himself completely open to a one hit knock out punch.
What a moron.
That was amazing, I wish there would be more footage.
Textbook example of douchebags with a bark bigger than their bite. "FIGHT ME I KNOW HOW TO FIGHT COME AT ME"
I was afraid Phoenix was going to lose to these scrubs, but after a few seconds it looked like he knew what he was doing. Props to him for keeping his cool.
I can picture the headline now.
"Masked Menace attacks innocent bystander"
Now get me pictures! Pictures of Phoenix Jones!

obviously a pro MMA fighter isn't going to lose to a bunch of dumbshits on the streets
pheonix would be so much cooler if he didn't just "call the police and stay away from most of the fighting"
i mean, sure, its dangerous as FUCK, but isnt that what a superhero does, put himself in danger to save others?
take this for example, the two only fought because the police allowed them to. if a guy was breaking into a car, it would be so much cooler if pheonix just fucking ran over and kicked him in the face and knocked him out, then drug him to a police station or something
i guess either way, the crime is stopped, but how cool would it be if he could like, climb on rooftops and hang-glide down and kick people in the face

also they should get a better camera

It would be cool, and illegal.

Batman also cooperated with the police.

Sorry, this is the real world.
I like his muay thai fighting style. Them lowkicks look like they hurt alot.
I don't see how a punch to the face in a fist fight can be deemed as a "cheap shot" unless there's something I'm missing here. Also he had an amazing amount of restraint.
