Real Fight Club In Union Square, NY!?

Apologies, as this news is now old.  Though I didn't see too many people discussing it here on The Cult.  My buddy Josh sent it my way.

It seems there was a real live fight club going on, right in the center of Union Sqaure in NYC late May.

The cops ended up stopping it, but still... this is wild.

Check Out The Story Here!

My God, that was INTENSE! I can't wait for the rematch - it promises less punching and even more fondlehugging!

I would never wear pants that tight to a fight.  I WOULD were a shiny belt though.  To blind them.

I've watched some of the related videos, and found this "FIght Club" to be sorely lacking in FacePunching.

I know you have the best intentions Dennis but this is not a fight and it is not wild.

I don't really think that guys obsessed with the way they look and wearing "trendy" slim trousers can be considered as being inspired by Fight Club.

Oh my God !!

What a couple of pussies!!! 

I have never witnessed anything so pathetic.

I've sparred wtih friends in parking lots before Fight Club even came out and we were going at it. 

These guys looked like they were trying to have sex with each other.

Sad.

If you're going to fight... even with friends.... punch like you got a pair, not like you just picked up your panties from the cleaners.

 lmao, are you kiding me?! this shouldn't even have the recognition of being tied to fight club...... stupid emo kids wouldn't know what to do in a real fight club, let alone in some public love display like that......

They do it all the time down there, a bunch of the guys I know from a martial arts forum know a bunch of the guys that frequent the place.

 

Here's a video of some better action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UTBrFhOUsE

That's better. It's more boxing sparring than real fighting, but at least they're taking it seriously. They could have shortened the pep talks in the beginning.

Fight Club like fights aren't going to surface on youtube because anything that raw isn't being filmed and is not done in overt public. And of course the film had them going a bit further than most would take them in real life.

They're so damn skinny

And what's up with the guy in the office chair, that was just weird.

Man, I'm not masculine at all, but what I can say is I'd aim for the face with those emo bitches. They punch like pacifists. I've seen people on heroine with more strength.
