While Mexican fighters are known for their passion, their fans also got a little rowdy at UFC Fight Night 237 on Saturday.

The card marked the promotion’s first event in Mexico City since 2019, and the night didn’t conclude without incident. Shortly after the first main-card bout ended, a brawl erupted in the crowd at Mexico City Arena. In footage shared on social media, one fan can be seen dropping two fellow spectators with punches during the melee.

Mexico’s Manuel Torres, who picked up a spectacular first-round submission win over Chris Duncan, did his best to try and pacify the crowd in his post-fight interview. It’s currently unclear what caused the incident.
