Several punches were thrown between the pair before nearby spectators and security moved in to break-up the melee
The man who came under attack retaliated, before several punches were thrown between the pair.

A security guard also moved in to separate the pair. Surrounding spectators were heard on camera yelling out ‘boys, boys, sit down’.
