Farhad2000says...Looks like they attacked his woman and he went BESERKER!
joedirtsays...I can't decide whether it was a 'hey let's video tape up punching random pedestrians' cause they thought they were such tough thugs, or more likely this is some mugging scheme where they pretend to be arguing and then jump people at the last minute.
It is odd there is a spy videographer. I'd have to say he reacted correctly, not berserk, because these situations can end up with you getting knifed and mugged real quick. So I doubt it was only because the chick got clocked.
rensays...his only mistake was that he didn't finish the job and they only had damaged pride at the end of it.
From the looks on their faces they weren't going to let that asswhipping slide. All i know is that i've had my weekly dosage of asscrack in just one day.
Russians?
joedirtsays...Sorry, i editted original title. YT consensus seems to think Slovanian gypsies that were about to mug the guy. Why this is being filmed is anyones guess. Hence I think it might be jackass style / bumfights-type video gone wrong.
Wumpussays..."Why this is being filmed is anyones guess."
Well if the mugging goes right they can show it and brag to their buddies later on, but if it wrong, they can use it to sue their "victim" for assault.
joedirtsays...I doubt even EU laws would not deem this self-defense. I guess you could argue the guy went a little nuts and licensed boxers can be charged as 'lethal weapons'. (Because they are trained badasses)
ambassdorsays...Doesn't seem too 'set up' since the trees block the camera from seeing what happens next..
Kruposays...They deserved it - crazy freaks!
Reminds me of this time I was walking with g/f and old friend (who is the closest person I know to a kickboxer). Well two guys were yelling at each other about who knows what. We turned to look at the commotion and one of them came at us, trying to start a fight with us!
Words were exchanged, and that idiot was incredibly lucky to run away when he did. Oddly enough, when we whipped out cell phones and started dialling 911, he decided he didn't want to stand around any longer.
Ah, big city life...
lucky760says...Wow. Awesome video dirt. Just awesome. That guy's a trained boxer but those other two were trained at taking a punch it seems. Tre cool (in the words of Parker Lewis.)
My guess (assuming it wasn't staged) is those two low-lifes were causing a ruckus so the cameraman pulled out his thing and did his job waiting for those initial two guys to fight.
Note to self - come back after a while and promote this.
Goofball_Jonessays...My question is, why is this NSFW...unless you work somewhere that speaks the language they are speaking/yelling.
viewer_999says...Yeah! YEAH! This gets me charged up. Handed those punks their asses. I hope after it went offscreen, he beat their asses again! YEAH!
Now I want to find that vid where a burglar was beaten unconcious because he picked the wrong house to burgle (was looking for an old lady... didn't realize a 250-pound powerlifter lived with his grandmother)
Burningsays...My heart races seeing this. He knows how to pack a punch, dat for sure.
freeling10says...Excellent. Loved the way he took care of business. Shows that people who know how to fight take care of things as economically as possible: short, direct, and to the point.
Lesson to learn: keep your hands to yourselves and don't fuck with other people because you never really know you're dealing with.
lucky760says...I know it's only been two days and I wouldn't ever normally do something like this so soon, but will you marr-- Oh, wait. Wrong speech... What I meant to say is *promote.
siftbotsays...Re-promoting this video to the front page as a VideoSift Classic. Originally published on Wednesday 4th October 2006 (promotion called by gold star member lucky760)
choggiesays...If it is indeed real, then my initial analysis is, that this should be the ilk of every human, much less male. We SHOULD be societies with more folk sharp and seasonsed, alert and equipped, to stamp out bullshit in all its forms, be it assault physicaly, or the more widespread,insidious type, passive agression, the Plague of the 21st Century....and, I wear fur pajamas, eat meat, use explitives, and say the word nigger around people I know get upset when they hear certain words in the english language, simply from the utterance of the same.
joedirtsays...good one choggie, I'm waiting for westy to login and post something even better. i agree with you, modern culture tries to breed people to avoid confrontation and make a whole society of consumerism sheeple.
joedirtsays...lucky, you should give yourself no time limit for your powers Here, I'll match you and also uselessly *promote this [EDIT] actually, I didn't realize that actually worked. You have a race condition and/or bug in siftbot cron job. It promoted then realized it couldn't promote.. but ol' siftbot still put it on the frontpage.
siftbotsays...This video cannot be promoted as a VideoSift Classic because joedirt promoted a video less than a week ago - sorry.
lucky760says...Hehe. Actually, I was expecting that to happen. SiftBot is getting something of a makeover. He will soon be invoking upon request.
I'm deleting the second, "cannot promote" comment from siftbot, for the record.
joedirtsays...lucky, just curious, how much more CPU and memory hit are you seeing with v2.0 stuff (AJAX) and siftbot immediate response (tags) stuff instead of hourly cron jobs?
lucky760says...It's funny that you presume more resources are required for those things when it's quite the opposite, if anything.
There is no more processing required to post a comment with Ajax than normal posting. In fact, the server-side process is much simpler and likely uses fewer resources.
As far as the instantaneous siftbot goes, that will be a great reduction in processing power because with a cron job, siftbot searches *all* recent comments for invocations (very taxing), but in his renovated form he will only do processing on a comment-by-comment basis. That's a vast improvement.
cardboardhutsays...My theory is it wasn't a mugging at all, but rather that one or both of the two guys had an ongoing feud with the boxer. That's why the one thug took a cheap shot at his girlfriend, probably betting the guy would be intimidated and keep walking, humiliated. It looks more like a cheap shot than the start of an earnest mugging attempt. But who knows?
Kruposays...I find the efficiency gains fascinating.
[I already said the vid was cool - way to supercharge it onto the top 15!]
bamdrewsays...interesting. I'd say the guy in the white jacket is some thug trying to run the streets a bit, and the black jacket guy may even have a gripe with him; notice the black jacket dude isn't enjoying the company of the white jacket guy from the beginning, then he tries to calm the fighter down, but gets beaten for his association with the guy that hits women.
detlev409says...Anybody think maybe it was a case of a happy slapper? That would explain the video camera.
That, or it's entirely staged...I only mention that possibility because the camera operator doesn't even mutter a "Gosh" at all during the whole thing, which you'd expect someone to do, given what we just saw.
joedirtsays...I agree about the happy slapping video here. The two guys are clearly pretending to be having an arguement.. This is a common technique used by muggers to seems less suspicious. So I kinf od feel the video guy is with the two thugs and they thought it would make an awesome happy slapping video.. Until they messed with the wrong guy. Too bad the girlfriend stops the boxer from really hurting these guys.
rembarsays...I love boxers. That is all.
The sweet science wins again!
budzossays...I think he showed incredible restraint. If you suddenly strike a female that I am accompanying, you will not get up off the ground after I'm done with you.
Dignant_Pinksays...all i gotta say is that guy totally had carpenters crack.
rembarsays...*promote

can then be fixed??

darkrowansays...odd... how did saving this push it back to the front page like a promote?
Deanosays...Guess it's a bug?
silvercordsays...It's still dead. People are now upvoting a DEAD video!
Here's one fix:
