Viral video captures violent brawl between two gym goers

A video of a wild brawl between two men at a gym has gone viral on social media after footage of the intense altercation showed the men exchanging punches before bystanders eventually jumped in to break it up. 

The video, which was posted to social media Wednesday, captured two men at Fitness Connection fighting in a packed gym for nearly two minutes. 

In the initial moments of the fight, the two members appeared to be dodging each other’s punches. One spectator can even be heard asking, "They’re playing though, right?"

A woman on the phone can be seen attempting to break up the fight, but video showed the incident lasting nearly two minutes before several gym members jumped in to finally end it. 

A spokesperson with Fitness Connection confirmed to Fox News Digital Friday that the incident took place inside one of its locations Tuesday. She declined to name the exact location of the facility, citing the privacy of members. 

"We are aware of an incident that occurred inside one of our locations on November 29, 2022," a statement from Fitness Connection said. 

"As always, the health and safety of our members and Teammates is of the utmost importance and Fitness Connection strongly condemns any acts of violence, especially within our facilities."

It was not immediately clear if law enforcement was notified of the incident.


 

Patriots' Mac Jones explains sideline tirade in loss to Bills: 'I just kind of let my emotions get to me'

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones said he let his emotions get the best of him during Thursday night’s loss to the Buffalo Bills when asked about his explosive reaction on the sideline to the Patriots’ play-calling.

Jones completed 22 of 36 passes for 195 yards and a touchdown, but the Patriots struggled to find the end zone, losing to the Bills, who claimed their third straight victory over New England. 

Clearly frustrated with something in the Patriots’ offense, Jones exploded on the sidelines.

After the game, he was asked what led to the profanity-laced tirade and seemingly pointed to heightened tensions.

"Obviously, I just kind of let my emotions get to me, but we're kind of playing from behind," Jones said. "What I said was about throwing it deeper in the short game. I got to execute that part better. But it's the short game we kept going to, which is working. But I felt like we needed chunk plays. I shouted that out to kind of get everyone going. That's emotional. That's football. I'm passionate about this game.

"Obviously, you don't want to let your emotions get the best of you. But, yeah, I think that's pretty much it. It wasn't directed at anybody. Just emotion coming out and we kind of needed a spark."

Jones assumed responsibility for his part in Thursday’s loss, adding that it "starts with me."

"When you're playing from behind against a pretty good team and a good offense, you need to go out there and make better plays," Jones said. "That starts with me. Definitely wasn't good enough by me tonight. All you can do is watch the tape and see where we can get better. Playing catch-up is hard. We didn't want to do that all game. I didn't do a good enough job of getting ahead early, making it work. So, tough one, but hats off to the Bills for playing a good game."

The Patriots dropped to the bottom of the AFC East with Thursday's loss while the Bills moved a half-game ahead of the Miami Dolphins. The Bills are on track to win the division a third consecutive year.
