The great non-fighting sport sports fights

Post by Imploding Turtle » Tue May 30, 2017 1:04 am

Ice hockey doesn't count because that's a fighting sport with bits of ice skating in between.

Here's one from tonight, Bryce Harper gets drilled on the hip by a 98mph fastball and so throws his helmet at the 1st base man.

State of Origin rugby league games in Aussie are always good for a bit of biffo and, as the commentator points out, "this is one of the best".

Always amused how commentators in most other countries seem to really enjoy these things with terms like "this is a good one" whilst ours get all sanctimonious and talk about "disgraceful scenes"etc.

Anyway, here's the classic Lee vs Hunter.

Round 1 is naff, but as they both get sent to the sin bin, they have a proper go.

You don't really get to see the fight till about 40 seconds in.
