“Hatton and Mayweather are at it again” Hilarity over Welshmen’s ineffectual street scrap

A ROTUND Welshman has been sarcastically compared with Mike Tyson after bizarre footage showed him scrapping in the street.

The clip shows the unidentified man throw a sucker punch which misses and then go through a bizarre routine of “boxing” moves.

But instead of a heavyweight fist fight, the two men ending up rolling around on the road.

The clip, which was taken in the Bon y Maen area of Swansea and posted yesterday (thu), has been watched more than 700,000 views.

The clip begins with a man in the red jumper appearing to push another man in a blue t-shirt away.

Suddenly, the man in the blue t-shirt takes a swing at his rival, but completely misses him and briefly goes out of shot.

He then squares up to his opponent swinging from side to side in a fashion similar to that of Muhammad Ali.

Loud laughing can be heard throughout the video as the man in the t-shirt then puts both his arms behind his back before then placing one of his hands on his cheek, appearing to ask for a punch.

The man in the jumper then decides to also put his fists up and retaliate, the pair then begin to tussle in the middle of the road, with the man in the jumper managing to throw is heavier opponent to the ground.

He also appears to give him a couple of kicks as those in the background can be heard saying: “Go on kick f*** out of him.”

Suddenly, the man in the t-shirt fights back by grabbing the other man’s legs and he consequently comes crashing to the ground.

Strangely, a horse can then be heard out of shot arriving on the scene.

The rotund gentleman goes for a tumble at one point in the clip

The man in the t-shirt then climbs on top of the other fighter with his stomach clearly on show.

This carries on before someone can be eventually heard saying “come on, break them up”.

The clip was taken by James Davies and posted with the caption: “Meanwhile in Bon y Maen.”

Online, Jamie Daw responded: “See Hatton and Mayweather are at it again.”

The two men even wrestle each other on the ground

Another Twitter user said: “This is one of the occasions, you just got to let them have a go.”

Another user took a screenshot of the moment the man places both hands before his back and said: “*Watches one Conor fight.”

Mark Thompson said: “He been watching Mike Tyson do the old bob and weave!”

There were also a couple of comments on the bizarre situation of a horse arriving on the scene.

Online reaction suggested hilarious comparisons to the fight

One Twitter user said: “Incredible footage taken by a horse!”

Another Twitter user said: “So where did the horse neehhhh come from lol.”

A spokesman for South Wales Police said they were aware that footage of an altercation between two men, purportedly filmed in Bonymaen, is circulating on social media.

“The incident does not appear to have been reported to police, however local enquiries are underway to identify the individuals in the video.

‘Mike Tyson’ proved to be a popular feature for some of the comments

“Officers would appeal to the men filmed and the person who filmed or uploaded the video to contact police via 101.

“Anyone else who witnessed the incident is also asked to contact police.”
